‘Little things,’ defensive lapses costly in Carolina's damaging Quad-3 loss


North Carolina couldn’t find that extra gear and the level of defensive intensity that carried the Tar Heels during their four-game win streak, and they didn’t do the little things needed to extend it. The result — a 72–71 loss to Stanford on Saturday after a step-back jumper from Jaylen Blakes with 1.5 seconds left — gave UNC a damaging Quad 3 loss. (Tar Heel Tribune)
