Carolina-Illinois not exactly a rematch

Posted Jul 9, 2005

The ACC/Big Ten Challenge matchups have been announced, and there are a number of interesting combinations. Illinois and North Carolina meet again, but given the depleted rosters you can't really call it a rematch of the championship game. Sean May, Raymond Felton, Rashad McCants, Marvin Williams and Jawad Williams have departed defending champ Carolina, while Deron Williams, Luther Head and Roger Powell are gone from Illinois' '04-05 team.
