March Madness bubble watch: North Carolina takes a swing at knocking out ACC partner Syracuse

Posted Mar 1, 2021
UNC took an enormous step away from the bubble with Saturday’s 78-70 victory over Florida State, which made Roy Williams’ 900th career victory a huge one. With victories over Louisville, Duke, Stanford and one in the first meeting with the Orange, the Tar Heels have a reasonable case for inclusion that could only be damaged with a defeat tonight.
