SEASON REVIEW

• Carolina has 22 wins. This is the 55th time in 72 years of competing as a member of the ACC the Tar Heels have won 20 or more games. • Overall, this is the 65th time the Tar Heels have won 20 or more games. • Carolina tied Wake Forest and SMU for fourth in the 18-team ACC at 13-7. This was the 62nd time in 72 seasons the Tar Heels finished in the top four in the ACC. • Carolina went 9-6 in non-conference games, 13-7 in regular-season ACC play and 2-1 in the ACC Tournament. • The Tar Heels played one of the toughest non-conference schedules in the country (No. 5 by the NET, second-hardest in a major conference behind only Memphis, and No. 6 by KenPom). • Seven of Carolina’s 13 losses have come against No. 1 seed Duke (three times), No. 1 seed Auburn, No. 1 seed Florida, No. 2 seed Alabama and No. 2 seed Michigan State. • In addition to those seven losses to top-two seeds, UNC also lost at Clemson, Kansas and Louisville. • The Tar Heels played four of the top five, five of the top seven and seven of the top 13 teams in the March 10 Associated Press poll. • Carolina has already played No. 1 Duke twice, No. 3 Auburn, No. 4 Florida, No. 5 Alabama, No. 7 Michigan State, No. 10 Clemson and No. 13 Louisville. • Kansas was No. 1 in the nation when UNC played the Jayhawks in Lawrence.

• Not only was UNC’s non-conference schedule one of the most challenging in the country, the Tar Heels also played the second-most away games against the top-six teams in the ACC standings (Duke, Louisville, Clemson, Wake Forest, Carolina and SMU), a product of the unbalanced schedule in an 18-team league.

• Duke played each of the other five teams on the road, while UNC and Wake Forest played four of the other five on the road. By contrast, Clemson played only two road games and Louisville and SMU played only once on the road against the other teams in the top six. • Carolina went 6-6 on the road this season, including 5-5 in the ACC.

• Carolina is 24-16 in ACC road games under head coach Hubert Davis.

• Through the Clemson game on February 10, a 20-point loss (which equaled the largest ever by the Tigers vs. Carolina), the Tar Heels were 14-11 overall, 7-6 in the ACC, 48th in the country in KenPom, 50th in the NET and 52nd in offensive efficiency. • Since February 10, the Tar Heels are 8-2 with losses only to Duke, have won six times by double figures and twice more by nine points, improved to 22nd in offensive efficiency, 33rd in KenPom and 36th in the NET. • Bart Torvik ranks Carolina the 18th-best team in the country over the last 10 games. • Carolina’s 74-71 loss to Duke in the ACC Tournament semifinals was the 11th one-possession game this season (games decided by one, two or three points). Those are the most played by the Tar Heels in the three-point era, which began in 1986-87. The 2010-11 team played nine one-possession games and won eight. • The 11 one-possession games don’t include the overtime win against Boston College, which UNC won, 102-96. They also don’t include the win at Syracuse, which UNC led by two points with less than a minute to play. • The Tar Heels’ six one-possession wins this season are the second most in the three-point era. UNC won eight in 2010-11, six this season and five in 1998-99 (5-3), 2002-03 (5-2) and 2016-17 (5-1).

• The Tar Heels rallied three times for wins after falling behind by double digits. On November 25 in Maui, Dayton led the Tar Heels by 21 points in the second half, but UNC forced overtime and won, 92-90; UNC trailed UCLA by 16 points with 12:35 to play on December 16 in New York but RJ Davis hit the go-ahead and game-winning free throws with 13 seconds to play in a 76-74 victory; and Wake Forest led, 14-3, in the ACC quarterfinals but the Tar Heels eventually pulled away for a nine-point win last Thursday in Charlotte.

Only one other school (Duke with 64) has more regular-season ACC wins in the last four seasons.

• UNC has led by double digits in 18 of 35 games (10 of the last 13 games) and trailed by 10 or more 14 times (including three of the last four games vs. Duke, Wake Forest and Duke). • In a season that was notable for playing numerous close games, the average margin in the last 12 games is 14.3 points. Carolina’s nine-point win over Wake Forest was the first game decided by fewer than 10 points since the 88-82 win at Syracuse on February 15. • The three-point loss to Duke on March 14 was the first one-possession game since Carolina edged Pitt, 67-66, on February 8. • UNC has led by five or fewer points with 5:00 remaining three times (beat Georgia Tech and lost to Kansas and Stanford) and trailed by five or fewer points nine times (beat Dayton, UCLA, Notre Dame, Boston College, Pitt and Wake Forest and lost at Louisville, at Wake Forest and at Pitt). The score was tied once (in the loss to Florida). • Carolina is 6-3 when trailing by five or fewer with 5:00 to play. • The losses to Stanford and Wake Forest in January were just the fourth time ever Carolina lost by a point in back-to-back games.
