Welcome to another podcast by Inside Carolina.com, the independent voice of UNC Sports, your home for Tar Heel football, basketball, and recruiting.

I'm your host Tommy Ashley, joined by Sherell McMillan. You're listening to the Inside Carolina podcast, and we're calling a 79, Louisville, 69.

Sherell, I'll say this. I think it was Carolina's most impressive win of the season. Your thoughts?

I think you can say that's fair, considering how bad they lost to Louisville a few weeks ago,

and then the fact that it was on the road, and then the fact that they were missing two of the rotation players in leaky black and sterling manly so i think that's a fair thing to say and you know coach

williams has talked about uh this year north carolina winning ugly and it might not have felt

ugly watching the game but the numbers are not great except for the ugly stats which are which

you know defense um and rebounding.

And North Carolina just destroyed them on the boards.

I think they had right at 50 rebounds plus 17 or plus 18.

We don't have official stats during the podcast.

So there's that.

And then they just limited everything Louisville was trying to do.

I felt the defense was much better.

Louisville ended up taking almost 33s, I think it's 29 unofficially. And for them, I don't

think that's the best way for them in the play, considering how well they scored in the pain against

North Carolina the first time. And a part of that was North Carolina was, you know, just much

tougher, much stronger in the paint. So overall, I think it's fair to say that's

their best win in the season. It certainly up there with Gonzaga, and, you know, they did what they

needed to do. Definitely. And let's talk about some performers that played really well. And I'll go

ahead and start with Luke May. I said something on Twitter and it gets people stirred up. I just think

he shoots too much sometimes. And he took 18 shots tonight, of course, made seven, had 20 and 11.
