Previewing Florida State

Posted Jan 28, 2009
UNC travels to Tallahassee for a mid-week clash against a big, defensive-minded Florida State squad. The game tips-off Wednesday at 9 p.m. and will be televised regionally by Raycom. Florida State’s athleticism has allowed it to put the clamps on their opponents this season, ranking second in the ACC in field goal percentage defense (.380). Miami (.490) is the only squad to shoot better than 44 percent from the field. (Inside Carolina)
