Suddenly 0-2 in ACC play, No. 3 Tar Heels baffled
Posted Jan 12, 2009
So much for the talk of whether North Carolina could actually go unbeaten this season. The third-ranked Tar Heels couldn't get through the first week of Atlantic Coast Conference play before matching their league loss total for all last season. One week after a stunning home loss to Boston College, the team everybody picked for No. 1 now finds itself 0-2 in ACC play for the first time in more than a decade after Sunday's 92-89 loss at No. 4 Wake Forest.
