BC always gives us fits with Rice. He kills us and we tilted and played out of control and missed FTs. If that happens again the rest of the season--UNC will continue to lose. Getting a loss out early I don't think is a bad thing--saw a lot of stupid flaws that need to be fixed before the team gets too cocky.

I remember Rice almost single-handily losing a 1st round ncaa game a couple years ago by constantly throwing up awful shots. Is he good now?

He kills UNC, he's good against a lot of teams but sick against us. He had 47 last year against us when we stole a win up at their place last year.

****ty loss but maybe this will help them focus and crush all that undefeated talk I was afraid we'd deal with all year. LOL at FT shooting.

They will never have to worry about losing that record. I thought UNC would lose once during the regular season and once during the NCAA tourney. I don't think they will win it all.

this is a worthless statement if you're saying they are dogs against the field and a lol statement if you think any single team would be favored against them

I think this is pretty naive on the heels of last year, and again a few years before that. It's only a matter of when.

i think they will lose twice in the ncaa tourney imo, just not an elite team imo.

If anyone ever does this again its not going to be anyone from a power conference. Its schools like Memphis you have to worry about.

I don't buy in to the whole "It's good to lose a game they learned their lesson!" angle

Let's beat everyone else by 20 all year

Of course I'd like that to happen--but then again we lost last night to a good but not great team and at home. Will see what happens though, I think this team is very good and b/c we lost we can learn. UNC looked shell shocked at times last night--similar to the shock I remember from the F4 last year and some of the games last year. There was a panic and they kept forcing 3s which didn't go in and couldn't hit them even when wide open. They also couldn't hit FTs, if we hit them all last night we would have won as well. Meh. Lesson learned, sucks that it was to BC though ^^.

Meh, shouldn't be crazy tough. Look for Hansbrough (and the rest of the seniors) to go 4 and 0 in Cameron.

Edit to say: I'm not saying win by 20, only coming out with a win.
