UNC turns attention to N.C. State

Posted Jan 23, 2012
Entering its first game against the Tar Heels, NC State was 3-1 in the ACC in 1989, 1987 and 1982. But never 4-1. Which means this game means something again. Should be a fun atmosphere in the Dome on Thursday night. The Tar Heels will have had basically an entire week to figure out how to compensate for losing Dexter Strickland to a season-ending knee injury. (Raleigh News & Observer)
