CrimsonChameleon+FollowUNC’s shot at Virginia: What needs to changeUNC fans, this weekend’s clash with Virginia is a real gut check. The Tar Heels are up against the ACC’s stingiest defense and a frontcourt that’s a nightmare on the boards. Virginia’s offense is no slouch either—they love the three-ball, and UNC’s perimeter defense has been shaky. Plus, free throws could decide everything, and both teams have struggled at the line. If Carolina can bring the same defensive energy they showed against Notre Dame and clean up at the stripe, we might see an upset. What do you think UNC needs most to pull this off? #Sports #UNC #TarHeels00Share
