Preview & Prediction: #7 UNC at NC State

Posted Feb 24, 2016
UNC needs the top eight players to perform at a high level and Roy Williams needs to figure out the best way to do that. There will be times when Joel Berry at the PG will be the best option and times when it could be Marcus Paige or Nate Britt. It doesn't need to be one thing or the other, the lineup should be what UNC needs to win. Prediction: UNC 85, NCSU 75 (Tar Heel Blog)
