Man I am pumped for this game! I'm excited to see a sold out TBA and the checkerboard. It's also a big recruiting weekend.

Let's get this W man! LET'S GO!

It has the feel of Kansas a few years ago when Mcbee hit that three. Epic moment in UT basketball history. Hopefully we get a similar result.

One game I would love to have back. Also had a big lead on UNC last year at their place and let it slip. And imo last years NC team is better than this years NC team and I think we are way better than the team last year. If we are up big again I think we close it out this time.
