Tar Heels blitz Wildcats
Posted Nov 19, 2008
What would've happened had Tyler Hansbrough played? North Carolina would've won by what? Thirty points? As it was, the Tar Heels looked just fine without their star center on Tuesday night, flaying Kentucky from the opening tip at the Smith Center. By the time the dust settled and UNC had forced the Wildcats into their final turnover, the top-ranked Tar Heels had a 77-58 win that seemed to indicate just how dangerous this UNC team can be.
