North Carolina vs. Virginia Basketball Preview

Posted Jan 7, 2022
UNC has had trouble with Virginia's pack-line defense in the 20 meetings since coach Tony Bennett took over, scoring 70 or more points four times and 60 points or fewer seven times. Virginia is allowing 57.5 points per game this season. With Dawson Garcia and Kerwin Walton out for the Tar Heels, scoring that many points is going to be even tougher. (Inside Carolina)
