Tar Heel Super Bowl Sunday Memories: The Kendall Marshall Sixteen Assist Game

Posted Feb 2, 2014
Every once in awhile UNC ends up with a basketball game on Super Bowl Sunday and one of the more memorable of these happened in 2011. To set the scene, Larry Drew abruptly left the team two days prior to UNC facing Florida State in Chapel Hill on February 6, 2011. That left freshman Kendall Marshall as the lone true point guard for a UNC team that had started to gel. (Tar Heel Blog)
