UNC 31-29 Wyoming HALF
Feel like a broken record… rebound. Have to close out defensive possessions—15 offensive rebounds for Wyoming so far.
The last time UNC gave up 15 offensive rebounds in a half was January 31, 2015 vs. Louisville.
The Week 1 AP Poll is out—UNC remains unranked and received 20 votes. Not too surprised about our spot.
ACC Teams in the Week 1 AP Poll:
#2 Duke
#6 Virginia

#17 Miami
Others receiving votes: North Carolina (20).
Wofford comes to town tonight. They gave Tennessee some trouble in the first half on Tuesday night, so interested to see how we come out of the gates in this one.
Rebounding will be another point of emphasis. Someone is going to have to box out Wofford’s 7-footer, Evan Ramsey. Big dude that gave Tennessee some fits earlier this week.
This is SO interesting.
• In minutes with ALL starters or NO starters: 62-36 UNC

HALF: UNC 39-30 Western Carolina
Defensive rebounding and untimely turnovers were the main issues I had with that half. Gotta make some more of these open looks from deep as well.
Thought Maximo Adams had a really nice last 5-6 minutes there.
