Kerwin Roach II's 32 Points Lead Texas to Upset Win vs. Coby White, No. 7 UNC
The Texas Longhorns went into their Las Vegas Invitational matchup against the North Carolina Tar Heels on Thanksgiving evening unranked. It's unlikely they'll remain that way much longer.
Behind Kerwin Roach II's 32 points and seven assists, Texas upset No. 7 North Carolina, 92-89, handing the Tar Heels (5-1) their first loss of the season. Texas remains undefeated at 5-0 and looks like a group to be reckoned with in 2018-19.
Jon Rothstein Shaka Smart has his best team since he's been at Texas and the Longhorns just made their first national statement. Beat North Carolina for second time in four years in Las Vegas.
