In recent years, the rules surrounding preseason college basketball exhibition games have been changed a bit, leading to teams playing some more high profile games as part of them. For the North Carolina Tar Heels men, they typically play one against a in-state school from the Division II or lower level, and that will still be the case with an October 29th matchup against Winston-Salem State.
However with the advent of being able to play more than one exhibition, UNC has gotten a little more adventurous. Last season, they went to the FedEx Forum in Memphis and took on the Tigers, beating them 84-76.
