Oh, we don't give a damn about Duke University, 
Duke University, Duke University
We don't give a damn about Duke University
'Cause we're from Car-o-li-na.

Senior Day with the 2,00th win on the line. That's a little bit more pressure than I'd like for this team to be under during what should be a pretty unremarkable game. The good news is that the game's at eight and not seven, and there's no threat of snow, two things that most contributed to the lack of a home crowd at the Florida State game.

You may look at Wake and say, "8-5? This is doable." Unfortunately, all five of those losses are on the road; Wake is undefeated in conference at home. They've only won two ACC games outside of Lawrence Joel. One of those was the 13 point win in Chapel Hill. Expect UNC to score less than Williams' blood pressure. Diastolic, even.

You heard it here first. This will be the most turnover-prone, blockiest, chaotic thing on the court this season. If I can't enjoy a win, at least I can revel in a catastrophe.

UNC's fighting for, well, anything at this point. The game's on CBS, who can't be particularly thrilled about that.

Anybody over 6'9" and in Chapel Hill today may want to head down to the Dean Dome to offer their services at power forward.

This is what College Park is digging itself out of today. Actually, it's probably worse – my neighborhood apparently got off easy.

Time to see just how far UNC has slid.
