Surprising North Carolina State to face North Carolina

Posted Jan 8, 2019
N.C. State has been one of college basketball’s biggest surprises, passing nearly every big test so far. The 15th-ranked Wolfpack will get perhaps the toughest one yet Tuesday, facing No. 12 North Carolina. N.C. State has one loss, by four at then-No. 22 Wisconsin, and has a win over No. 7 Auburn.
