Following a big win against Kentucky last week, it would’ve been understandable if UNC had a hangover going into yesterday’s game against Georgetown. It’s something we’ve seen from previous teams, and while it tends to be a really frustrating situation, it at least would’ve been predictable. However, this Carolina team was able to handily dispatch […]
