Point of Contention

Posted Mar 19, 2011
It’s rare for a Roy Williams-coached squad to take the floor against a team with a higher scoring average and even rarer to play an opponent that puts up nearly six more points on the scoreboard, but that’s what the Tar Heels will encounter on Sunday afternoon. While North Carolina ranks 17th nationally in scoring offense (77.4), Washington checks in at No. 3 with an 83.1 points-per-game average. (Inside Carolina)
