Final Four Preview & Prediction: #1 UNC vs #10 Syracuse

Posted Apr 2, 2016
Given UNC isn't a great shooting team and NRG Stadium is infamous for poor three point shooting, finding ways to get the ball into the post will be crucial for UNC's success in this game. That is unless Marcus Paige applies the 1993 Donald Williams patch to his shooting application. Prediction: UNC 79, Syracuse 68 (Tar Heel Blog)
