Last night, RJ Davis had this to say about the first half of UNC games this season, via Inside Carolina.
“Obviously we went down big in the first half. Wasn’t the first half we like to play. Myself and Seth, we just told them, like, We got to stop shooting ourselves in the foot. We always putting ourselves in this positions and got to climb our way back into games.”
Well, it happened again. The first half has been BRUTAL for the Tar Heels against big teams this season. Unless that changes, North Carolina is going to have to fight every game back out of a hole.
