See photos from the NC State Wolfpack’s basketball game against the North Carolina Tar Heels at PNC Arena in Raleigh, NC Sunday, Feb. 19, 2023.
UNC has had an upper hand in this rivalry, winning 31 of the past 36 games.
The Pack’s biggest concern Sunday, again, is deciding how to best take on Armando Bacot, who had 23 points and 18 rebounds in UNC’s 80-69 win in the first game this season, Jan. 21 in Chapel Hill.
North Carolina State defeated the Tar Heels 77-69 with big runs in the second half.
