With back against the wall, UNC looks awful again
Posted Jan 17, 2010
The loss at Clemson was bad, I admitted. But I still spent part of the week defending North Carolina and its five losses because, as I pointed out, lots of teams would have five losses with the Tar Heels' schedule. Proper context was important, I thought. And it was. But it's hard to continue to defend UNC's national ranking in the wake of Saturday's 73-71 loss to Georgia Tech at the Smith Center.
