North Carolina won its 11 straight game in the Smith Center this season by toppling Wake Forest, 87-84. The Heels are now 27-5 in the building against Wake. It wasn't easy. The Heels squandered a sizable second-half lead and watched Wake cut it to two on multiple occasions. But the Heels made just enough free throws down the stretch to seal it. (GoHeels.com)
