For the North Carolina Tar Heels, they entered last week still projected to make the NCAA Tournament but still needed to finish strong to avoid a disaster. And they responded with a 4-0 week.
The Tar Heels beat Gardner-Webb on Tuesday and the followed it up with a three-game sweep of NC State. The three-game sweep officially put UNC in the 2023 ACC Tournament as they look to defend their crown.
Even with the four-game week and a five-game win streak, the Tar Heels are still not ranked in the USA TODAY Sports’ updated rankings. Instead, they are the first team out as they received 55 votes.
