Heels take down Wolfpack

Posted Feb 1, 2009
Roy Williams expected Tyler Hansbrough to be at his best against N.C. State on Saturday. Psycho T didn't disappoint. Hansbrough's 31 points led UNC to a 93-76 win over N.C. State at the RBC Center. After Hansbrough scored a season-low eight points against Florida State on Wednesday, Williams expected a vintage performance from the All-American. Hansbrough ran the floor and burned the Wolfpack in transition. (Raleigh News & Observer)
