So here it is:  the one everyone's been waiting for.  The mighty Wolfpack come to town to visit the unsuspecting Tar Heels.............

Or at least that's what every State fan that calls 1090 would have you believe.  To paraphrase, "I really think State's going to man up together, bring it and beat Carolina in Chapel Hill this week.  That's just the crazy season we're having.  I really think we'll beat the Tar Heels and get back on track."

Riiiiiight.  I know you think Carolina's looking not one, but two games ahead to Duke next Wednesday.  And I might agree with you if this was last year.  But I just can't buy it now.  This Tar Heel team is focused, determined, and ready.  Julius Hodge will not beat the Tar Heels again in his career.  The Pack have had some unfortunate injuries this season and have been extremely inconsistent on the floor.  Levi Watkins is hurt now, and they do not have a solid post presence to combat Marvin, Sean, and Jawad.  Not this time.  Not this year.

Rashad McCants has had some low outputs offensively of late, but I'm willing to bet he has an axe to grind tomorrow night.  I predict he nets 27 or more.

Go Tar Heels!
