"I think when we got it to a one-point game and about two or three [times] in a row, we took bad shots," North Carolina coach Roy Williams said. "You can’t do those kinds of things. We’ve been hammering them pretty good for several years. They’re tired of that. And I think the difference in the game to me was their sense of urgency early in the game." (Tar Heel Tribune)
