Jay Bilas: North Carolina not a Final Four team

Posted Feb 25, 2018
ESPN College GameDay’s hosts played a card game where they either held onto a team’s card as a Final Four team or tossed it away if the host didn’t believe the team would make it. And North Carolina didn’t make the cut. ESPN’s Jay Bilas drew the Tar Heels’ card and decided not to hold onto it. “They’re playing really well. I think they’re an Elite Eight team."
