UNC head coach Mack Brown says it was "embarrassing" to see his Power Four team lose 70-50 to visiting JMU on Saturday.

"Embarrassing day. Shocking day. You shouldn't be at North Carolina and lose to a Group of Five team, period," Brown said after the loss. "There are no excuses. Our defense, who played great all spring, all preseason, and played outstanding for the first three games, looked awful today."

JMU, after being held to 43 total points through the first two games of the season, set a program record by scoring 53 points in the first half alone.
