Regarded as one of the best mid-major programs in the country, the Jackrabbits were expected to give the Tar Heels a run. However, Courtney Banghart's team wasn't having any of that nonsense, asserting their dominance from the opening tip.

The Tar Heels started the game on a 9-0 run and never took their foot off the gas.
