Spartans, Heels will go at it again
Posted Dec 1, 2009
Once isn't enough for UNC and Michigan State. Twice isn't either. The two will play each other for the third time in 12 months at 9 p.m. today in an ACC/Big Ten Challenge Series game at the Smith Center in Chapel Hill. The game will feature the teams from last season's NCAA Tournament final, which UNC won 89-72 at Detroit's Ford Field. "It'll be like old-home week to see Tom (Izzo, the Michigan State coach) coming," Roy Williams said.
