The Postgame: Big Shots, Big Men Lead Heels Over Kentucky

North Carolina found its way late in Rupp Arena, and in the process, may have found its best option at point guard going forward. Freshman Derek Dixon hit a big three-pointer and a late layup to push the Tar Heels to a 67-64 win over a desperate Kentucky team on Tuesday night. Inside Carolina’s Rob Harrington and Dewey Burke joined Tommy Ashley to break down the win and the highlights from a tough, much-needed UNC victory.
