UNC-Miami Postgame Notes

Posted Mar 11, 2011
UNC's comeback win is its largest in ACC Tournament history. The Tar Heels trailed Miami by 19 points with 9:51 to play in the second half. UNC closed the game on a 27-6 run over the last 9:51 of play. Miami led 31-22 at the half. That equals UNC's largest halftime deficit overcome in an ACC Tournament game. In the 1969 ACC championship game, Duke led Carolina 43-34 but the Tar Heels rallied for an 85-74 win behind Charles Scott's 40 points. (Tar Heel Blue)
