North Carolina Slides One Spot to No. 7 in AP Men’s Basketball Poll

Posted Dec 2, 2019
Despite losing its first game last week against new No. 4 Michigan, UNC didn’t suffer too much in the rankings. In the newest edition of the Associated Press Men’s Basketball Top 25 released on Monday, the Tar Heels fell just one spot from No. 6 to No. 7. Louisville is the nation’s new No. 1 team after Duke’s upset at the hands of Stephen F. Austin last week. (Chapelboro.com)
