Carolina will look to build momentum in ACC play, and nothing has been as kind to their record as a visit from NC State in the recent past. The Wolfpack last won in the Dean E. Smith Center on January 27, 2018 in a fluky overtime win over Joel Berry and Luke Maye. NCSU was unable to beat Carolina on either of their two meetings last season, despite UNC’s historically catastrophic form and record.
Roy Williams still holds an incredible 32-5 record over that school in red. If lessons from the loss in Raleigh were learned, there’s every reason to believe that he’ll go to bed on Saturday night 33-5.
