1. A very damaging loss for Carolina's postseason hopes, ACC hopes, and just the overall feel of the season. It took the Tar Heels about 30 minutes to wake up, and by that point it was too late.
2. A very rough first half resulted in a 40-23 halftime deficit. The Tar Heels turned it over ten times in the first 20 minutes, and Pittsburgh was very efficient with those miscues, turning them into 20 points. The 17-point deficit was the third biggest halftime deficit in Smith Center history.
