Proud of this UNC team. Wasn’t ranked in top 25 basically all year. Early on in season either won by 20+points or lost by 20+points. Lost big games vs Purdue Tennessee Kentucky Wake Forest Miami stayed humble and figured out what works for us. Everyone written off UNC & ACC by then. After that figured out just how to win games and close games out with W’s vs Louisville(2xs) Virginia Clemson Virginia Tech dook. iykyk
As much flack as referees have caught I think it’s only fair to mention these refs did a really good job. They kept the whistle in their pocket for the most part and let the guys play ball.
The contrast to the Baylor game is insane. Last night's game was one of the best games I've watched all year in terms of officiating. The pace was FAST for it and I loved it.
I agree. And I want to mention I know how hard it is for them to ref these fast paced games and respect them for that but that Baylor game was just blatant and very obvious to any eye on TV. My 73-year-old dad who doesn't really care about much about watching the tournament watch that game and came to me and said that game seemed awfully weird about the referees calling everything one way. Normally he doesn't care and he's not Tarheel fan either
I agree with you Normalguy. Bacots save from going out of bounds was maybe the play that saved the game for NC. UCLA will be back again with homegrown CA. talent.
Jack P - Coach Smith looking down - smiling, using the chalkboard to signal, better to make the assist, leading to a better look; and Coach Williams, knowing he passed the "baton" to the right individual, who knows the "Carolina Way." Go Heels!
We was low key forcing too many threes thats what almost gave the game away but overall great win by the heels. Caleb Love was insane in this game. Hopefully UNC remains humble against St. Peter’s because this ain’t the team to be sleeping on.
Caleb almost shot them into an L. He was driving and it was working, then jacked up 3s. Glad they won, but I rather Caleb just stuck to what was working and not force things. Whenever they lost the lead again, it was mainly because of back-to-back missed 3s.
Yeah....I really like big man. He's active on defense which I really like. You don't find too many his size doing that. Shooting's superb and he can just str8 get grimy with it.
As # UCLA fan I must humble myself and congratulate The TarHeels for hanging tuff and hitting the needed shots. I'm pulling for NC now to win it all. 27 points in the second half will be remembered for a long time. NC hit the crucial shots while UCLA didn't.
No kidding, re, your last sentence. Juzang and Jacquez were 0-11 to end the game, with the latter missing a good handful of close-ins, with bad banks off the board or the ball dancing off the rim. He wasn't able to practice so he had an excuse, but Juzang was atrocious except for his two or three early shots. He needs to work on his handle, because with his one-on-one mindset, he tends to fumble the ball away.
@@robjohnston366 Facts...Jacquez was Hurt & Ran out of Steam..Juzang Just Looked Completely Lost (Unlike Last Year) What was Disappointing was that Cronin Didn't Make any Defensive Adjustments on that Guy Love...He Basically won the Game for N.C. ..U.C.L.A will be Back Next Year to Take 12th🏆!!!
@@BrooklynEwms32LAKERS You're obviously referring to Bona, Bailey, and Andrews coming in -- a backup point guard! -- with hopefully Watson staying. I'm looking to what McClendon can bring after recovering from his injury as well as Etienne. I just found out that Jaquez is probably staying because he wants to attend college with his sister who's a star basketball player herself. So the team should be loaded. As far as coach's lack of adjustment for Love who hit those two consecutive high-arching three-pointers, I'd agree except for the scouting report against him which showed that he was 1-6 / 1-4 / 5 points against Baylor. During the year, he was .372/.378 in 2- and 3-pointers -- his three-point % was actually pretty good, and he was UNC's most prolific 3-p shooter. So coach needed a more detailed scouting report, but those two shots were undoubtedly prayers. I'll be rooting for UNC or maybe Villanova to win it all. Not a Coach K fan...
Bacot's save at 9:38 might be the biggest save in the tournament. That ball goes out or he throws it to a UCLA player and the game probably has a different outcome. What a great effort!
What a sweet victory for my favorite lifetime NCAA team the NC Tarheels. I must admit at times during this game they had me a bit worried with missed 3 pt shots near the end and turnovers but they pulled it off at the last 2 to 3 minutes.
Yeah I didn’t understand why they didn’t go inside with bacott and manek but it was there defense as well tht clutched it up there size and speed on defense is what really shows about tht team
I love when they keep the Tar heels like The underdogs don't forget this team's been to the final four more than any team in college basketball history. 6 time NCAA champs 💪💯
@@haydenwatsongk5117 has nothing to do with the coach. If you look at majority of the season you didn't know what to expect with the Tar heels. 1 minute they're playing hot then the next they lose like they never played in a game before. So it was mostly you don't know what you're going to get out of them. They are playing way more hotter and tougher now than they did all regular season. They're being taken seriously now
The audacity of Caleb Love is crazy😅. Dude is a HOOPER!! The shots he be taking, they have complete trust in him too; neon greenlight lol. This shot 9:43 had me shook 😲 right after he had missed the same shot, instantly gets it back doesn't even think about passing it off and lets it fly lol yo...🙆🏾♂️
Mind you I've been following him since he was a HS junior He's usually been a low-efficiency playmaker I've NEVER, EVER seen him wild out like that on the biggest game of his life so far too dude just decided he was a legend
@@cosmiumiu yeah i remember he had like two 20-point games vs them, UNC torched Duke but against UCLA he had 27 points *in one half* it's way different
@@ranjandey3233 yea I like St. Peter’s but ever since that duke win in Cameron this UNC team looks like there on mission and no one is going too stop that
UNC was left for dead and written off..wasn't even in the top 25 all season...If UNC don't win another game..I'm proud of their growth and the team they've become this year....
Bacots save isn't getting much attention. I believe if he didn't make that save to Love who knocked down the three, I think UCLA would have pulled that off.
People said the ACC is weak now 🤣 three of the top eight this year..rankings can be deceiving because the conference beat up on each other so the overall record didn’t show how good these teams are
Caleb Love was playing out of his mind tonight, as well as Bacot on the boards. The Peacocks are gonna have their hands full trying to keep the Tar Heels off the offensive backboard if their Cinderella is going to continue in this tournament
I WANNA SAY IT'S GOING TO BE A GOOD GAME BUT I GIVE CREDIT WHERE CREDIT IS DUE. UCLA PLAYED US REAL GOOD TONIGHT. HADN'T IT NOT BEEN FOR LOVE'S HOT HAND, UCLA COULD'VE CAME DOWN AND DROVE TO THE BASKET LIKE THEY HAD BEEN DOING ALL NIGHT?
It was a great game back n forth nobody ran away with it no 7 or 10 point lead but the takeaways were unc was just to big inside and love hit those two daggers at the end tht sealed it
@@Funkywaters I agree with you. Wow, Bacots save with less than 2 minutes leading to the tying three was a huge, huge play. This game almost was won by UCLA.
The ACC was underestimated too much throughout the year. 37.5% of the ACC is in the Elite Eight, 12.5% of the Big 12 is in the Elite Eight, 12.5% of the Big East is in the Elite Eight, 12.5% of the AAC is in the Elite Eight, 12.5% of the MAAC is in the Elite Eight and 12.5% of the SEC is in the Elite Eight.
For his size, I think he did pretty well. Not the best feet, but, kept the hands up and stayed active. As long as he's dropping those bombs, I can live with that. If Caleb zones out the rest of the tourney and the team plays as one, look out.
Love has found himself and that’s really cool. Saw him at the UM-UNC game and felt from then on, he changed for the better and grew more confident in his shot. Here we are still. Go Heels!!
One of the best games I’ve ever watched. Teams traded big shots, high level dribble drives, big defensive stops, and big rebounds. Lead change after lead change. Go Heels
Tarheels, looking like Tarheels. Hustling, playing good defence, helping each other, staying positive. And let's face it, UCLA is a very well coareched team, good range, a good half court game, and Tarheels hit 3 pointers in the last 1:10 that they had to hit. UCLA missed eithers. And Tarheels made their freethrows down the stretch. So very fundamental basketball. If you notice UCLA had better numbers in many aspects of the game, but the last 1:00 Tarheels ourplayed them. It was tied at 1:16 or so. Tarheels hustled when ball was free, to gain control, didn't back down. They worked as a unit, all 5 on the floor. and a remarkable coach and everyone else on the bench. So great win for Tarheels!
One of the better games UCLA has played all season. I hate when the Bruins lose but when they cannot beat a team like UNC I feel less sad because UNC played a fairly clean game, intense and well prepared. These storied programs carry much history and the programs this year were both well coached and ready. Congrats to the Tar Heels and to my beloved Bruins, if Jacquez and Juzang return, and are in healthier shape than this year, perhaps the 2023 NCAA championship awaits.
From a victory in Benjamin Franklin’s hometown of Philadelphia back home to a celebration on Franklin Street in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. Tonight we’re gonna to party like it’s 1976.
When are the analysts going to finally admit that ACC is the best conference of all time in the NCAA? Maybe I should become an analyst, I think I know better than 99% of them. Go ACC teams.
Caleb Love took over in the final minutes but don't that all of his threes distract you from the true play of the game. If Armando Bacot doesn't make that save to tie the game at 64, UCLA has all the momentum and probably win this game. In these last few rounds, Bennedict Mathurin, Bacot, and Caleb Love are my favorite players coming into this years draft. 😊
I am not a North Carolina fan but my folks are from there, North Carolina has been balling, s/o to Hubert Davis taking over for Roy Williams a legendary coach. I know folks in Carolina love to see it.
Clean game. Not a lot of whistles. The players just played and let their game do the talking. Also, the first whistle was for out of bounds after 8-10 minutes I think 😂
He played like an idiot. Had one of those prayers not been answered, the Carolina fans would be crucifying him today. There would be calls to fire the coach for leaving him in the game. Instead, UNC fans are bursting with pride talking about how this is their favorite Carolina team. Funny how sports work. A scrub who launches 10 threes with a guy draped all over him in a span of 10 minutes during a regulation basketball game is being celebrated as a “hero” with “killer instinct”. Carolina won this game, not because of an incredible performance by that guy. Actually, Carolina couldn’t establish anything offensively against a tactically superior defensive opponent. They won because they were a superior rebounding team. Carolina is one of the best offensive rebounding teams in the country. They clean up the offensive glass like UCLA suffocates offenses. It was a few rebounds that won Carolina the game. The rebounds negated Love’s imbecilic shot selection.
That was a good game Tar Heels, you are really making a lot of noise like I knew you could.My favorite coach was Coach Smith, second favorite, Coach Williams,now Coach Davis, if you keep this up,you will be my third favorite coach in the Tar Heel family.
As a lifetime UNC fan even before MJ was there I would like to see more balanced scoring than have a huge night from 1 particular player! I was very glad to see Love have a really good game after a bad 1st half. Too much living and dying by the 3 for my taste! I would like to see Manek Bacot RJ and Love each have atleast 15-20 pts each and even get some bench players contributing more! Another scary game down to the wire but again we pull off the W! Unsung hero was the D by the entire team as Manek Bacot RJ Love and Puff really made it hard for the Bruins to score. Nice to see a clean game. Lets take care of the Peacocks and come out ready to play from the opening tip. Lets go UNC all the way!
Proud of this UNC team. Wasn’t ranked in top 25 basically all year. Early on in season either won by 20+points or lost by 20+points.

Well it also didnt feel like a hockey match like it did with baylor. It was more of a clean shootout than a dirty game so that also helps
Couldn’t agree more. Compare this game to the one against Baylor and it’s a drastic difference in officiating
Bacot's save and simultaneous one arm pass to Love for 3 to tie the score with 1:47 left was a huge pivotal moment for Carolina. Wow, what a game!
I agree with you Normalguy.
Bacots save from going out of bounds was maybe the play that saved the game for NC. UCLA will be back again with homegrown CA. talent.
Greatest moment of a great game!
@@garygoodin1426 That was the game defining play!!!
bacot had two great, timely rebounds in those last possessions and one on the defensive end
Yes! I said this too. The save from Bacot to Love was a HUGE game changer. Also Bacot's tip in. That was when they locked in the W.
Roy's face after the end of the game is absolutely amazing. He's like a proud dad.
Love that man
And Coach Smith smiling from above.

True
Unc has been laser focused since they beat duke they find ways to win no matter what and with different players it’s not just 1
We even led throughout most of the game. We led 31-28 at halftime and 56-51 in the 2nd half but we still blew it. I'm just heartbroken we lost.

Congrats to the Tar Heels and to my beloved Bruins, if Jacquez and Juzang return, and are in healthier shape than this year, perhaps the 2023 NCAA championship awaits.
I’m a Virginia Tech fan so it’s tough seeing UNC go this far, but at least it’s not UVA.
U all are never going this far so don’t worry u been almost getting there since 1998 same with football
The ceiling is the roof!!
This color commentary guy is killin me 😂😂
From a victory in Benjamin Franklin’s hometown of Philadelphia back home to a celebration on Franklin Street in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. Tonight we’re gonna to party like it’s 1976.
been there...the bicentennial that is...go Heels!!
When are the analysts going to finally admit that ACC is the best conference of all time in the NCAA? Maybe I should become an analyst, I think I know better than 99% of them. Go ACC teams.
Except duke
Caleb Love singlehandedly losing Carolina the first half, only to singlehandedly win Carolina the second half and the game
False
Caleb Love took over in the final minutes but don't that all of his threes distract you from the true play of the game. If Armando Bacot doesn't make that save to tie the game at 64, UCLA has all the momentum and probably win this game. In these last few rounds, Bennedict Mathurin, Bacot, and Caleb Love are my favorite players coming into this years draft. 😊
I am not a North Carolina fan but my folks are from there, North Carolina has been balling, s/o to Hubert Davis taking over for Roy Williams a legendary coach.
I know folks in Carolina love to see it.
I’m a kansss fan but I’m impressed by UNC’s *VERY* *VERY!!!* hard fought turn around and work ethic mane
Nothing like seeing two blue blood programs facing off against one another in the NCAA Tournament!
Clean game. Not a lot of whistles. The players just played and let their game do the talking. Also, the first whistle was for out of bounds after 8-10 minutes I think 😂
rj and caleb both wit 30 piece nuggets 😳
Unc going all the way
we want unc! lets go duke!
@@americanpatriot7233 This ain't the same Caleb Love as the one few months ago. Y'all don't want UNC breh.
@@americanpatriot7233 be careful what you wish for
@@guitarmandan2125 believe me UNC has some very harsh payback coming their way this time against Duke.
@@rolandmeyer7853 this aged terribly 😂
Caleb hit some big shots but look at the assistant coaches in the back after every tough shot he took 😂
He played like an idiot. Had one of those prayers not been answered, the Carolina fans would be crucifying him today. There would be calls to fire the coach for leaving him in the game. Instead, UNC fans are bursting with pride talking about how this is their favorite Carolina team. Funny how sports work. A scrub who launches 10 threes with a guy draped all over him in a span of 10 minutes during a regulation basketball game is being celebrated as a “hero” with “killer instinct”. Carolina won this game, not because of an incredible performance by that guy. Actually, Carolina couldn’t establish anything offensively against a tactically superior defensive opponent. They won because they were a superior rebounding team. Carolina is one of the best offensive rebounding teams in the country. They clean up the offensive glass like UCLA suffocates offenses. It was a few rebounds that won Carolina the game. The rebounds negated Love’s imbecilic shot selection.

@@tannerebeling1056 do you disagree with anything said?
The Pantone 11 switch at halftime did it for Caleb Love
Love put on them sky blue shoes and gain super powers. Bro channeled that inner Tar Heel fr
Caleb Love for UNC is nice. Good playmaker
That was a good game Tar Heels, you are really making a lot of noise like I knew you could.My favorite coach was Coach Smith, second favorite, Coach Williams,now Coach Davis, if you keep this up,you will be my third favorite coach in the Tar Heel family.
Wow ! Good yo see The Legend Roy Williams .
What a win Go Heels.
Caleb love went hard dis game 💯
This Carolina team is giving me 2017 champion vibes and I fuccing love it
Caleb love clutched up at the end
Love set the tone from the start
How are the 9 teams from the big 10 doing in the tourney?
Ian Eagle the GOAT
ThaBoi Caleb had to redeem himself from when he fouled out against Baylor Yessirrrrrr 30 ball W 💯💪🏾🔥
Give credit to tiger Campbell men . What a guard . Assist first 🔥
Love connection, love machine, gotta love it… the commentary is hilarious lol
What a game!
Caleb Love was on FIRE!!! UCLA has a better team but Caleb was unstoppable tonight!
Congratulations Tarheel basketball 🏀
As a lifetime UNC fan even before MJ was there I would like to see more balanced scoring than have a huge night from 1 particular player! I was very glad to see Love have a really good game after a bad 1st half. Too much living and dying by the 3 for my taste! I would like to see Manek Bacot RJ and Love each have atleast 15-20 pts each and even get some bench players contributing more! Another scary game down to the wire but again we pull off the W! Unsung hero was the D by the entire team as Manek Bacot RJ Love and Puff really made it hard for the Bruins to score. Nice to see a clean game. Lets take care of the Peacocks and come out ready to play from the opening tip. Lets go UNC all the way!
I think they came together as one in the second half. If they continue to play this way, they will spoil the show for sure.
