North Carolina: The Tar Heels crushed Texas in Chapel Hill and finally looked like the dominant No. 1 team it was projected to be at the start of the season. 2.

CHAPEL HILL, N.C. — A quick look at No. 5/6 North Carolina’s 82-63 victory over Texas at the Smith Center on Wednesday: How it happened: Taller, more veteran North Carolina led from the outset – out-pacing, out-dunking and out-rebounding the Longhorns.
