UNC has already beaten the Cavaliers by 22 points this season, so today's game serves as the last warm-up for the Tar Heels' Wednesday night showdown at Duke. The matchup against Virginia will mark the 100th ACC contest for coach Roy Williams, who has led UNC to a 73-26 against league foes. The eight Tar Heels who are members of the Naismith Hall of Fame will be honored at halftime today. On hand will be Williams, Dean Smith, Bob McAdoo, James Worthy and Billy Cunningham.
