Lucas: Rapid Reactions - UNC vs. Tennessee
Posted Dec 17, 2017
That will be a hugely beneficial game in February and March. Tennessee started the game on fire. But the Tar Heels gutted out a win. You had to be in the building to understand what a tough environment that was. But UNC played through it, got a win, and as Roy Williams says, they got to enjoy hearing the crowd go silent...except for a chant of "Tar!" "Heels!" from the UNC contingent.
