Tar Heels loss at Virginia Tech raises questions

Posted Jan 22, 2018
North Carolina suffered a frustrating loss at Virginia Tech on Monday, which may raise red flags on the rest of the Tar Heels’ season. The Tar Heels unraveled before halftime and saw a seven-point lead turn into a seven-point deficit at the break. The Hokies built the lead to as many as 16 before cruising to an 80-69 win that left UNC coach Roy Williams questioning the effort. (North State Journal)
