Congrats to UNC for the 20-win season

With the win at UCONN yesterday, UNC got its first 20 win season since 2000-2001. I am especially proud for Jawad, Jackie, and Melvin, who have experienced the ultimate lows of UNC basketball, and now, are getting a chance to experience some of the highs.

Looking forward, what would it take for UNC to get their first 30 win season since 1998?

Remaining regular season games:
  1. Virginia
  2. Clempson
  3. @state
  4. @maryland
  5. FSU
  6. dook
Followed by:
  • ACC Tournament (1-3 games)
  • NCAA Tournament (1-6 games)


Looking at the schedule realistically, lets put games into _ categories:

Should Win EasilyShould Win with a FightCould Go Either Way
  • uva
  • clemson
  • fsu
  • 1st round NCAA
  • 2nd round NCAA
  • @state
  • @maryland
  • 1st round ACC
  • 3rd round NCAA
  • dook
  • 2nd round ACC
  • ACC Finals (if necessary)
  • 4th round NCAA
  • Final Four (if necessary)
  • NCAA Championship Game (if necessary)

With 9 games in the "Should Win" categories, it looks like a 30-win season is definitely in reach. Still, it is by no means a straight shot, especially when one loss can lead to not playing other games. Here's to 35-3!
