UNC’s Strickland reluctantly acknowledges State is ‘a good team’

Posted Jan 27, 2013
The N.C. State basketball team didn’t just beat rival North Carolina for the first time in 14 tries Saturday. In the process, the Wolfpack finally got the attention of the Tar Heels’ Dexter Strickland. The senior guard made headlines last fall by saying that the preseason ACC favorite Wolfpack was “the least of our worries” because of its lack of head-to-head success against UNC.
