After a 5-2 start to the regular season, UNC travels to Raleigh to face NC State to begin conference play.
Carolina heads into the game coming off back-to-back wins against NC Central and Kentucky. Granted, the Wildcats are not the team they usually are (Kentucky sits at 1-5), but it was important for Carolina to end nonconference play on a high note.

Tip-off is scheduled for 7 p.m. from Raleigh.
