Another defenseless night leads to another one-sided UNC loss

Posted Jan 22, 2022
In a season-long struggle to figure out how to play better defense, Carolina found no answers Saturday night. Wake Forest (16–4, 6–3 ACC) took advantage of careless turnovers, ran in transition with ease and shot well as the Demon Deacons overwhelmed UNC 98–76 at Lawrence Joel Veterans Memorial Coliseum, leading the fans to storm the court.
