Lucas: Rapid Reactions - UNC vs. Pittsburgh

Posted Jan 18, 2020
North Carolina's struggles continue, as Pitt raced to an early lead and never looked back. If you combine the second half against Pitt in the Smith Center with the first half Saturday, the score was Pitt 88, Carolina 48. That's against an opponent that is probably destined for a middle of the ACC finish. The Tar Heels' depth problems are also causing problems. (GoHeels.com)
