Tulane expecting fired up UNC team after Tar Heels’ loss

Posted Dec 16, 2015
UNC leads the series 13-1, but the schools engaged in a pair of classic battles. The Tar Heels beat the Wave 113-106 in four overtimes in New Orleans in 1976. Six years later, Tulane went to Chapel Hill and took the Michael Jordan-led defending national champions to three overtimes in a 70-68 loss. Jordan stole an inbounds pass and sank a 35-footer at the buzzer to prevent the Wave from winning in regulation. (New Orleans Advocate)
