With No. 1 Miami In Town, Tar Heels Hope To Revisit History
One win. Forty-six losses. One tie. Since the launch of the AP college football poll in 1936, that’s UNC's all-time record against top-five AP opponents: 1-46-1. The lone beautiful victory is worth revisiting this week, whether for reasons practical, or merely coincidental. As the Tar Heels prepare to host No. 1 Miami on Saturday, consider these parallels. (

A photo of his late aunt hung from
Terrence Brown’s chain as he sat at a table after Tuesday’s game, with his Athlete’s Bible resting beside him. Both were reminders of a year the transfer guard said has taken a lot from him.

76. Neo Avdalas, North Carolina: At times last season, Avdalas looked like a lottery pick: 33 points, six assists in the second game of his career against Providence; 30 points against Western Carolina a few weeks later. But he averaged just 10.8 points in the other 29 games. His combination of 6-9 size and advanced skill give him an intriguing ceiling. (
