Tar Heels hand Lute Olson worst home loss ever

Posted Jan 28, 2007

The No. 4 Tar Heels flexed their collective muscle harder than they had in any game this season, blowing out No. 17 Arizona 92-64 on Saturday in front of a sellout crowd of 14,596 at the McKale Center. UNC (19-2) handed the Wildcats their most lopsided home loss under Coach Lute Olson -- the previous record margin was 12 points -- and their second-worst loss under Olson in any arena.
