04.06.2009 Carolina v Michigan St. - National Championship (THSN Sync + One Shining Moment)

The 1975-1976 Indiana Hoosiers may have gone undefeated but arguably the best basketball ever played in an NCAA Tournament was performed by this Carolina Basketball team. In a scheduling break for the ages, this Tar Heel team beat Michigan State in December at the ACC/Big Ten Challenge, and now at the same venue against the same team Carolina was playing for a National Championship.

Coming into the final Monday of the college basketball season, the Tar Heels had won tournament games by 44, 14, 21, 12, and 14. No team, save LSU in the round of 32, even Carolina sweat for the win. After beating Michigan State at Ford Field by 25, most of the sports writers believed this game would be different. They were right. North Carolina was only able to win by 17.

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.
