It's Senior Night. Six Tar Heels will run out of the home tunnel at the Dean Smith Center tonight for the last time in their UNC career. In terms of immediate business, UNC can lock up the double-bye for the ACC Tournament with a win versus Syracuse. In addition to the double-bye, UNC is ensured at least a top three seed.
