UNC 73, Miami 64: The look back

Posted Feb 16, 2012
Why the Tar Heels won: UNC trailed by nine at one point during the first half, by five at halftime and then by eight early in the second half. But the Tar Heels started making some shots and came up with some key defensive stops. Harrison Barnes scored 14 of his game-high 23 points in the second half, and Reggie Bullock scored all 10 of his half. (Raleigh News & Observer)
