We’ve got a doozy on our hands this Saturday afternoon, as Florida State will travel to North Carolina to take on the Tar Heels in an ACC track meet. Both of these teams love to get up and down the floor, and they can score in bunches with the best of them. North Carolina is 6th in the country with a scoring average of 89.3 points per game, while Florida State’s 86.7 points per game is good for 13th in the country.
The #9 ranked Seminoles are red-hot, winning 14 straight to extend their record to 16-1 on the season. They are tied for first in the ACC with a 4-0 conference record, and their last three victories have all came against ranked conference opponents. Florida State beat #12 Virginia 60-58 on the road, #21 Virginia Tech 93-78 at home, and #7 Duke 88-72 at home in their last three games.
Standing in the way of the scorching Seminoles are the #11 ranked Tar Heels. North Carolina has an overall record of 15-3, and they are in third place in the ACC with a 3-1 conference mark. As talented as the Tar Heels are, they haven’t fared very well against top 25 competition so far this season. Heading into Saturday’s game, UNC is just 1-2 against ranked opponents.
Now that you know a little bit about the matchup, let’s break down all of the ways you can watch the game.
