After a tough showing at the Maui Invitational last week, the North Carolina Tar Heels are looking to get back on track. But it won’t be easy as they are facing another tough week.
UNC will play two games this week hosting No. 12 Alabama and then their first Atlantic Coast Conference game, hosting Georgia Tech. Before we look ahead at the matchup with the Yellow Jackets to start ACC play, they first need to handle business against the Crimson Tide.
When UNC does hit the court for the ACC/SEC Challenge, they will do so in style with throwbacks. The program announced on Monday that they are going with the Michael Jordan-era throwbacks, taking it back to the 80’s with the all-white uniform combo.
Check it out below:
North Carolina’s uniforms are among the best in college basketball year after year, including during that era. It’s a crisp design, basic, but also at the same time iconic.
UNC has worn these in the past for other games but with the hype leading into this game for Wednesday, this should add just a little more excitement for the matchup.
