Sloppy offense costs Tar Heels, who have ‘thin margin for error’


North Carolina came to Pittsburgh hoping to get off the NCAA tournament bubble, and with sloppy offense, the Tar Heels may have done that. Just not in the way they expected. The Tar Heels probably are looking up at the bubble after blowing a 10-point first-half lead and falling 73-65. The continued discouraging results are taking their toll on UNC. (Tar Heel Tribune)
