The UNC basketball team fell to No. 11 in the both polls on Monday.  The Tar Heels lost their only game of the week on Saturday afternoon.  The Texas Longhorns defeated Carolina 84-82.  Carolina’s record now sits at 7-2.

In the first few weeks of the 2015-2016 season, the UNC basketball team has bounced around in the polls.  The team began the season ranked No. 1.  An early upset loss to Northern Iowa knocked the Tar Heels from that perch.  But, going into Saturday’s game against Texas, Carolina was ranked No. 3 in both the AP and Coaches Polls.

Michigan State currently sits at the No. 1 spot in both polls.

Duke is ranked No. 7 in the AP Poll and No. 6 in the Coaches Poll.  Virginia is No. 8 in the AP and No. 9 according to the coaches.  Once again, two other ACC teams remain in the Top 25.  In the AP Poll, Miami is No. 15 and Louisville is No. 19.  But, in the Coaches Poll, Louisville is No. 16 and Miami is No. 19.

The team returns to the court on Wednesday night.  Carolina will play Tulane in Chapel Hill at 7:00.  WCHL’s coverage of the game begins at 5:30 with Countdown to Tip-off with Aaron Keck.
