Lucas: Rapid Reactions - UNC vs. Pittsburgh

Posted Feb 16, 2022
A very damaging loss for UNC's postseason hopes, ACC hopes, and the overall feel of the season. It took the Tar Heels about 30 minutes to wake up, and by that point it was too late. A very rough first half resulted in a 40-23 halftime deficit. The Tar Heels turned it over ten times in the first 20 minutes, and Pittsburgh was very efficient with those miscues. (GoHeels.com)
