UNC Basketball vs. Syracuse: How to Watch

Carolina’s next ACC game will occur in Chapel Hill, and against a team in orange...

It’s just going to be a few days later and against an opponent from a few miles further north than was expected.

In what has become more normal for this college basketball season, the Tar Heels went from playing a Saturday Night game against the Clemson Tigers to a Tuesday Night game against the Syracuse Orange. The move was precipitated by the ACC COVID protocol as Clemson indicated enough issues to warrant moving the game. As the Orange had started late due to COVID issues of their own, the two squads found themselves with an open date and time this week, and the ACC decided that asking a healthy Tar Heels squad to wait a week and a half to play just didn’t make sense.
