Taylor's Take: UNC's Road Ends in Sweet 16 Posted Mar 29, 2024 The road ends for UNC in the Sweet 16 with a loss to Alabama. It’s a tough finish to the season for the Tar Heels. Alabama's Grant Nelson took over late, scoring 19 in the second half, and Carolina was done in by too many mistakes down the stretch. It's tough to go in that locker room after the season ends like that and see the pain on the players’ faces. (Inside Carolina)
