Tar Heels rout Rutgers despite travel issues

Posted Dec 29, 2010
Snowy weather? Travel troubles? No full team practice in more than a week? No problem so far for UNC, which blew out Rutgers 78-55 on Tuesday at Madison Square Garden. The Tar Heels - who were supposed to reconvene in New York City on Sunday night, after their holiday break - instead arrived roughly 12 hours before tipoff, due to the blizzard that piled snow atop Manhattan and down the East Coast.
