UNC Tar Heels are ELITE!



Okay. I don't even want to talk about the game.  We started out well...leading by as much as fifteen points at one time.

Then the bottom fell out.  And by bottom, I mean the bottoms of the nets as the Ohio Bobcats started reigning threes... And my dear Tar Heels started turning the ball over.

It then became a seesaw battle at the end.  And that darn Bobcats player had the audacity to loft a three at the end of regulation that could have given them the win.

I was on the floor.  No seriously on the floor! But thank goodness it clanged off the right side of the rim! Whew!

Let's just say...Stillman White didn't do a poor job playing in Kendall Marshall's stead, who is out with a cracked right wrist bone.  White had ZERO turnovers.  Tyler Zeller played well with 20-20 effort. Harrison Barnes was not himself.  He was quite flat, and seemed a bit distracted...bless his heart, but he showed a little moxie in the end.   But above all else...REGGIE BULLOCK showed up and showed out, in the nick of time!

When the final buzzer sounded in OT... UNC 73  OHIO 68! The Tar Heels move on to the Elite 8.  We'll play either Kansas or NC State

Kendall Marshall after the game. One thing I can say about UNC athletes: They are always prepared for interviews, and handle them well.
