UNC's Second-Half Defensive Breakdown

Posted Jan 12, 2017
It wasn’t until Wake Forest fell behind by 19 points early in the second half that it switched on its attack mode, and then it became a matter of No. 11 North Carolina attempting, and oftentimes failing, at cobbling together defense stops to secure a 93-87 victory. UNC was called for 16 fouls after halftime, which resulted in four different players picking up four fouls. (Inside Carolina)
