Another Quad 1 loss has UNC Men's Basketball likely ticketed for 6 seed

Posted Mar 13, 2026
After blowing one last chance for a Quad 1 victory to impress the NCAA tournament committee, No. 19 North Carolina is likely destined to no better than a 5 seed and likely a 6 seed when the brackets are announced Sunday. Given that it was a narrow loss in a Quad 1 game, UNC fell only one spot in the NET (from 23 to 24) and the WAB (from 19 to 20). (Tar Heel Tribune)
