UNC may not have won Monday had it not been for Dexter Strickland's career-high 18 points. But still the freshman guard was treated to a stern scolding after the game. All of the Tar Heels were. "Guys, I am so ticked off it's unbelievable," Roy Williams said. Sure, Strickland had his best offensive night of the season. But Williams was quick to rattle off a handful of his costly defensive lapses. (Fayetteville Observer)
