Teams are very similar stat wise. UNC is not particularly big. Both teams are good defensively, force a ton of turnovers and both average over 12 steals per game. Biggest edge stat wise is Ducks have a better 3 point shooting percentage but that can change on any given game. Both teams force low opponent shooting percentages. Looking forward to this and hope they just flush the 4th quarter against So Utah out of their minds.

Actually, I hope he's reminded them of that 4th quarter surrender all week long...
