Neither team shot well at all with UNC shooting less than 38 percent from the field and VT shooting an even 40. The Tar Heels controlled the ball well though and only had seven turnovers compared to VT's 14. The Tar Heels also had 15 more rebounds than their opponent, which is always conducive to winning. UNC next plays Boston College on Saturday.
