In the reaction post to 12th-ranked North Carolina’s home loss to No. 20 Georgia Tech, SB Nation’s Tar Heel blog, Carolina March, says you can bury the idea that UNC is a different team when playing in the Dean Dome.
Carolina March: Dean Dome Not Yet Big Advantage For Young Tar Heels
If nothing else, I hope this game will end the meme of UNC being a different team at home and away. While I’m sure the crowd helped in stretches today, it’s the same team. It’s just the opponents, with the exception of Michigan State in December, aren’t the same quality. Now that good teams are coming to Chapel Hill - and Tech was, don’t forget, ranked, and will remain so - that home/away split will soon fade. Hopefully because of wins on the road, not losses in the Dean Dome.
Typical of this season, the Tar Heels did some good things (shutting down the freshmen, good defense on Tech’s point guards) and some bad (turnovers and rebounding). Head on over to Carolina March to get the full analysis of the Tar Heels third loss in their last four.
