CHAPEL HILL — No. 8 North Carolina plays at Virginia Tech tonight in Blacksburg, Va. (9 p.m., ESPN), and it will be important to watch how UNC starts the game. The Tar Heels admitted they were flat at the start of their most recent game, a 90-57 defeat at Florida State. The Seminoles put UNC in an early hole and the Heels never climbed their way out.
What happened in Tallahassee, Fla., was as shocking as anything we’ve seen in an ACC game in recent seasons. But if it could happen there, it could happen against in Virginia Tech’s Cassell Coliseum, where UNC has lost two of its past three.
A fast start is a must for the Tar Heels, who need one both to build confidence and to move on, mentally, from what they endured at FSU.

UNC lost to FSU? When did this happen?? UNC 76 VT 61. VT is the bottom feeder of the ACC.
UNC 84/VT 64
Ol' Roy will takes all his players off the court with 14.2 seconds remaining, so they can go takes showers and head back to NC since they will be up by 20+....ha! ha!!
Not even a Tar Heel blowout can keep the drive and desire for the boys to race off to that long, hot and steamy shower time after a game. Shame they couldn't wait the 14.2 seconds to drop the soap in Tallahassee.
