Previewing Penn
Posted Nov 15, 2008
With defending national player of the year Tyler Hansbrough listed as "extremely doubtful," the No. 1-ranked Tar Heels take the floor Saturday for their season-opener against Penn. Tip-off at the Smith Center is set for 4 p.m. and will be televised by Fox Sports South. "[They're] an experienced team. I haven't seen anything about anybody with sprained ankles or anything like that, so maybe it's just happening to North Carolina right now."
