Very great game Virginia should have had it but North Carolina dominated the second half

Woohoo! Comeback! Carolina needed that!

Virginia with an awful choke. I will never respect this cheam for anything. The grounds need to be shut down. Letting UNC get a big win with Hubert Davis at the helm. Cant wait for the tournament Cavaliers!

First time all season I’ve watched a UNC game that made them feel like a title contender. Probably helps that this felt like an April game

Caleb Wilson 20 pts 66.7 fg% 8/12 fg 📼 pitiful first half for unc, but fought back in the second half and come away with a big ranked conference game. clutch bucket at the end for Caleb, one hand fadeaway bank is a god damn filthy shot to close the game out on.

What a nice road win for North Carolina. Statement made! I didn’t see this coming.

Virginia started really well and I was high on them, but they just gave an easy path for UNC there to come back and great second half from UNC. Both good teams

Virginia had the lead for almost the entire game except for the very end. Although Virginia dominated the rebound battle and getting second chance opportunities, unc only turned the ball over 4 times compared to Virginia’s 11. They also shot the basketball so much better and they get a very good road win and giving Virginia there first acc loss.

UNC upsets Virginia on the road

UNC beats Virginia on the road, 85-80! Masssive road ACC win for the Tar Heels, its only UVA’s third loss this year. Caleb Wilson had a day per usual with 20 points - 4 rebounds - 2 assists - 2 blocks & 2 steals. He has now put a stat in every category in 9 games this year!

The tarheels come into Charlottesville and take down the hoos. Great way to bounce back from the California trip and grab their first ACC road win. Jarin Stevenson and Caleb Wilson were awesome.

Fantastic game a lot of different trends UVA early big lead was shattered by Caleb Wilson Henri and UNC to mount a 16 point 2nd half comeback to shock UVA Overall a great game

As someone who loves Virginia basketball, this one hurt. Virginia controlled most of the game but UNC outscores Virginia by 14 in the second half to get a much needed win in ACC play.
