Heels struggle in loss to Syracuse

The chants of "over-rated!" began with about three minutes left Friday night at Madison Square Garden. Frankly, they could have begun a whole lot sooner. Sixth-ranked UNC could barely bury a second-half shot, struggled to make second-half stops, and looked exactly like what it is in losing to Syracuse 87-71 in the championship game of the 2K Sports Classic: a team with a lot of talented parts still trying to piece them together.
