It's full steam ahead for surging Tar Heels after avenging earlier bad loss to Cardinals

Posted Feb 3, 2019
The Tar Heels entered this weekend with an 8-1 record in their past nine games with the lone loss being a surprising 21-point loss at home to the Cardinals. No, the Tar Heels didn't beat Louisville at Louisville as badly as Louisville beat North Carolina at Carolina three weeks ago. But UNC did jump to a 19-point first-half lead and basically cruised to a 79-69 victory. (CBS Sports)
