Tar Heels blow out Temple in opener

Posted Nov 13, 2015
The top-ranked Tar Heels opened their season with a 91-67 win over Temple in the Veterans Classic at Annapolis, Maryland on Friday. It was tough to tell that listening to coach Roy Williams, however. "When we win, I usually let them wear warm-ups for the trip home," Williams said, "but I told them to put on their suits and ties tonight. I told them, 'It's Nate's fault you have to dress up for the way home.'" (Carolina Blue)
