Spartans Sent Home Green with Envy

Posted Dec 2, 2009
This was supposed to be No. 9 Michigan State’s opportunity for revenge after two embarrassing losses to UNC last season. But the 11th-ranked Tar Heels dispatched the Spartans for a fifth-straight time on Tuesday, surviving a late rally for an 89-82 victory. Ed Davis (22 points, six rebounds) and Larry Drew (18 points, six assists) both posted career-highs in points in leading UNC to its fourth-consecutive win in the ACC/Big Ten Challenge.
