The Tar Heels and Wolfpack resume their once fierce rivalry, which was among the fiercest in college basketball for three generations. However, the series now lacks its former intensity.
Art Chansky’s Sports Notebook is presented by The Casual Pint, a pub that offers local beer and delicious pub food. Among 35 rotating taps and 200+ beers in the cooler, fans can enjoy their favorite brews while cheering on their team.
The Carolina-State rivalry has seen its share of great moments, but numbers favor the Tar Heels, who lead the overall series 167-81 heading into the 249th renewal. Indianan Everett Case dominated Frank McGuire during their four years together, while Hubert Davis is expected to bring a new level of success to the team.
The rivalry has lost some of its luster, but it still holds significant importance for fans and players alike. With Hubert Davis at the helm, the Tar Heels are looking to make a name for themselves in college basketball once again.
In recent news, four-star guard Isaiah Denis committed to UNC Men’s Basketball, following commitments from Derek Dixon and James Brown. Five-star recruit G.G. Jackson also announced his commitment to Carolina, giving Hubert Davis his first top-10 commit as a head coach.
The team will face off against NC State on Wednesday night at the Dean Smith Center in Chapel Hill. Due to hazardous road conditions caused by adverse weather, the program is encouraging fans within driving distance to stay home and enjoy their favorite beers from The Casual Pint instead.
