The Tar Heels have rung off four consecutive victories, with the latest coming against the #16 Clemson Tigers last Saturday. This most recent stretch has consisted of two ranked wins, two ACC wins, and three wins away from the Dean Dome. The head-to-head matchups aren’t the only reason North Carolina’s resume is getting so much praise nationally, as they moved up to #7 in the latest AP Top 25. Where the Heels have separated themselves from many others is the saturation of challenging opponents in short periods of time.
Hubert Davis and his squad have fared well and weathered the storm to this point, and as you have read, the team deserves a healthy amount of praise for doing so.
