UNC nearly pulls upset despite turnovers; Wilson puts on show

Posted Oct 25, 2025
There was plenty to like as No. 25 North Carolina battled No. 8 BYU down to the wire, but too many careless turnovers kept the Tar Heels from pulling off an exhibition upset Friday night. Seth Trimble’s drive to the rim was denied at the buzzer as the Cougars held on for a 78–76 win before a half-full Delta Center. Caleb Wilson stole the show for UNC. (Tar Heel Tribune)
