From flat to fabulous: UNC Basketball rolls by Kansas with second-half surge

Posted Nov 8, 2025
When No. 25 UNC lowered the hammer on No. 19 Kansas in the second half, the Jayhawks were helpless to stop the Tar Heels’ surge. In a huge early signature victory for Coach Hubert Davis, Carolina overpowered Kansas 87-74 Friday at the Smith Center, fueled by a decisive 27-9 run after halftime. The halves couldn’t have been more contrasting. (Tar Heel Tribune)
