Getting Run Out of the Gym

North Carolina inability to counter opponents offensive runs has been a consistent problem all year. Syracuse, Kentucky, Texas, and Clemson amounted such big runs that the Tar Heels were forced to play "catch up" the remainder of the game.

In fact, North Carolina has even given up large runs to inferior opponents where their talent carried them through to victory...that is until they traveled to College of Charleston.
