UNC's lack of a point guard would be their message board's main obsession if their fans were halfway as neurotic as some of our fans here - fans who take one element of the offense and beat it with the fervor of a drunken Lifetime Movie husband.
They played at full strength and lost to a team that is rather 5th tier. Pretty par for the course regarding this season's overall talent in college basketball.

Oh damn.. That Iowa ISU game was pretty sick too. I think you may see both as top games of the season. I give the nod to UNC Texas though.. My roommate doesn't know what goaltending is (had to explain it to him when UNc slapped the ball off the backboard), and he was on the edge of his seat..
Possible those two will be the best, but conference play and the NCAA Tournament will have something to say about that.
They just lost to an unranked used to be football school.
Best team in the country my big blue ***!
Bwah ha ha ha ha ha...
Thats karma for the NCAA not dropping the hammer on them lowdown cheaters.
UK up to #4 .....we coming for all you haters.

Road loss in December will be forgotten in March if you are playing well. Applies to UNC, UK or anybody else. It's wide open this year.
Yeah but the way Bilas and Vitale and Jay Will all slobbered over them you would think that it would at least take a top 25 team to knock them off.
My point is we are going to be right there again this season.

I get your thought process but nobody is slobbering over UNC. All they said was UNC is the best team in the country right now. That's not slobbering, that's giving their honest opinion and I don't see how it's wrong. Do you think we would have won at Texas today? I don't. Our guys aren't ready for that yet. As bad as we looked at UCLA I don't think we can knock other teams for losing a true road game .
This is the same unc team as last year.. Nothing major has changed.. I see no threat from them come March..
Nah.. I'm just talking about regular season. Tournament games should be their own level.. Everyone goes bonkers for those games.
Shaka Smart was a great choice for UT. Right now, Texas is in a football funk, Smart has a chance to lift some spirits.
Any day the Cheats lose, is a good day!
I've said all year they can't defend the rim!!!! They can't now and won't be able to in March!!
Ksnsas and Mich st is better then UNC but the reality is all this 3 are better then us right now with the absence of our lottery pic. Did he play today? A toad loss to Texas on a buzzer beater is not that bad of a loss. Its December and we just got our asses handed to us by a average team in UCLA. i bet Texas could beat UCLA IMO.
ESPN and Vitale are on a lithium drip right now, UNCheats go down, yeeeesssssss:cool2:
Love it when they lose. They should also lose at least one championship and lots of wins too, but that's a different matter. They do have some weapons, but now have taken two road losses to teams they should have easily beaten. Lots of tools in the box, yes, but they play porous defense right now and make lots of mistakes for a veteran team.
UNC was at full strength with a bunch of junior an seniors - guys projected to be all conference. I think their loss was less understandable than UK's at UCLA, the first real road test for a young UK team nursing injuries to its veteran player (Lee, Ulis) and another vet coming back from an ACL injury.
That and the fact that their defense looked incredibly pedestrian. I mean, how much room does this UNC team have left to grow as a team? Berry, Britt, Paige, Jackson, Johnson, Hicks, and Meeks have all been playing together for 3 to 4 years. What you see at this point is what you get (albeit, they have the talent to beat anyone and win the whole thing, but the margin for improvement is small).
UNC still doesn't play defense...how can we go without a picture on the shot of the early season?

People were definitely slobbering all over UNC. People seemed to gloss over how bad defensively UNC was last year.
UNC returned nearly everyone. We are a team that has four freshmen in the rotation. Apples and oranges.
