Game Preview: #5 UNC vs #18 Florida
Posted Nov 28, 2014
Given UNC's rebounding struggles against Butler, that will continue to be an area of focus. Chris Walker is Florida's best offensive rebounder with a 16..7% rate while Jon Horford collects 18.8% of defensive rebounds. Conversely, Kennedy Meeks has a defensive rebounding rate of 25% and Brice Johnson is at 18.7%. Isaiah Hicks could be the X factor.
