If you’re a North Carolina fan and you don’t like winning ugly or yelling at your television, it might be a good time to opt-out of the season. For the second straight game, UNC navigated through all sorts of ugliness to earn an ACC win. This time, the Tar Heels won 67-65 Tuesday at Miami on a baseline drive by Andrew Platek with three seconds left. (Tar Heel Tribune)
