This entire season has been about redemption for the Tar Heels. With the memory of how the 2016 season ended for them, the goal has been to get back to the National Championship game and to win it.
To see that dream of redemption realized, Carolina will have to win the rematch with Kentucky. It was one of the best college basketball games all season when these two blue bloods met in December. This time, the stakes are much higher.
Can the Tar Heels find a way to contain Malik Monk and De’Aaron Fox? Will Justin Jackson and Joel Berry II shoot their way to Phoenix? It’s an incredible tough matchup for sure, but it’s one that the Tar Heels can win if they play their game.
There are no easy games left. No easy wins to be found. If the Tar Heels win today, redemption will be one step closer.
Go Heels!
