01.10.2024 Carolina @ NC State (THSN Sync + Pre & Postgame)

Spoiler alert! The Tar Heels won this game.

The Heels are now (deep breath) 37-6 in the last 43 games against State. They are 54-13 in the last 32 seasons. Carolina is 19-6 against the Pack at PNC Arena and 23-6 in PNC Arena overall. The Heels have 165 wins against State all-time, the most in program history against any one opponent. If Carolina and State play twice per year for the next 42 years, and State wins every single one of those games…the Tar Heels will still have an edge in the all-time series.

Imagine what it would do to your mind if the Tar Heels were on the wrong end of those numbers in the series against Duke. And make no mistake, State supporters feel the same way about this series that Carolina fans feel about the Blue Devils. In the 39 Wolfpack home games at PNC Arena since Covid, they've had three sellouts. Two of them are against the Heels (the other is against Clemson). This is perhaps an appropriate time to remind you that Carolina sold out a December home game against Charleston Southern.

Now you understand why those students near the tunnel were so angry. By the time the Tar Heels left the court after the win, though, the students were gone. They'd been replaced by four fans in Tar Heel shirts and hats, high-fiving each player as they headed to the locker room.

Nearby stood a cow mascot from a chicken franchise, reminding everyone that they'd won a free chicken sandwich because Ingram was kind enough to miss two free throws late in an already-decided game.

Slight change in the dining plans for Thursday: the Pack will not need to cook. We're all going out for chicken.

Carolina Blue on Screen:

If you notice different blues from our graphics versus the broadcaster's graphics on the screen note this. North Carolina athletics, my love, has had color durability and consistency issues from a marketing perspective for years. We use Nike’s version of Carolina Blue, hex code 85ADEA for all UNC video content on this channel because it matches the uniforms, shoes, court, etc. You will notice ESPN and indeed other media outlets use the branding standard hex code 7BAFD4 the Tar Heels publish but it does not match virtually anything other than Carolin's marketing guide and the basket supports in the Smith Center. The discrepancies you see with the content on this channel are not my own but North Carolina’s inability to commit to one blue. We will remain consistent with the 85ADEA color for matching purposes.
