Lucas: That Awkward Moment

Posted Feb 28, 2013
It was kind of an awkward game. Carolina won it going away, except when they almost frittered it away at the end--which only came after many in the allegedly sellout crowd of 9,778 had already streamed for the exits with 1:21 remaining...in a nine-point game. The Tar Heels dominated the game, except when they didn't, but Clemson was never quite able to take advantage. (GoHeels.com)
