The Postgame: Question Marks After Win

North Carolina’s 32-point lead turned into a near nail biting finish as the Heels allowed Syracuse to battle back and cut the margin to just six points with 42 seconds remaining. For a team needing all of the positive vibes and, more importantly, positive metrics, the final 87-77 win left questions resonating around the Smith Center on Monday night.

Inside Carolina’s Rob Harrington and Tommy Ashley break down the win, the performance and what the last 10 minutes of action mean for Hubert Davis’ team as they head into the first Duke matchup of the season on Saturday.
