Tar Heels Sort Out the 'What Ifs'

Posted Mar 12, 2006

The short drive from the ACC Tournament back to Chapel Hill was filled a bunch of "what ifs" after the Tar Heels fell to Boston College 85-82 in the semifinals Saturday. What if Reyshawn Terry didn't get in early foul trouble? What if the Tar Heels played better defense on a few more possessions? But Roy Williams wasn't buying any of the "what ifs" following the tough loss that snapped the team's season-long eight-game winning streak. (Tar Heel Blue)
