With the first games under way in Men's Basketball season, the second ranking has come out. For UNC, who beat Penn in their only game so far, there was no movement.
Penn vs UNC: The Final Thoughts
unc5corners.blogspot.com 11/16/2008 — It is about an hour from the game between Penn and North Carolina, the first game of this basketball season, and one that so many fans have been waiting for. So, as we have done for the football team, we will continue to do so with the Men’s basketball, and begin the "Last Thoughts" right here ...
All-Access with Roy Williams on UNC Practices —
X’s & O’s of Basketball
Well, college basketball is finally upon us, in full swing today. Most of y'all probably watched that great win by the consensus number one team UNC over Kentucky. I didn't watch the game live, but from the highlights and the boxscore, it looks like the Wildcats are still struggling to get into ...

Tar Heel Fan
Defense was good, offense was iffy, Tyler Zeller may have broken his wrist.
Basically it went like this, UNC came out, did a lot of damage early with aggressive defense that earned them a huge lead then threw it into cruise control the rest of the way. The defense showed great intensity ...

Great Basketball Tuesday Night —
I Dislike Your Favorite Team
ESPN is going totally bitchcakes on the coverage over the next 24 hours. But the highlights are Tuesday night Prime Time games, where we will see if Kentucky can hang with UNC. After them Wildcats got beat by VMI, I'll be surprised if they can stay within 20 of UNC. Within 15 is a moral ...
UNC 86, Penn 71: And Now, Kentucky —
Carolina March
I've haven't mentioned basketball much this fall, in part because I've had little to say. UNC brought back practically everyone from last year, added an impressive recruiting class, and was unanimous preseason #1. There's only so many ways to say, "This team is going to be good," and I figured ...

Tar Heel Fan
I’m not worried.
I did not see the game since I could not find it on the cable system at the in-laws house in Maryland. I did read some varying opinions from message board and the media. On the fan side, some folks are worried about the level of play. I am not but I will watch the ...

The quest begins.
UNC, under Roy Williams, as a penchant for not playing paritculary well in openers. Not that this puts them in danger of losing this ...
The People Have Spoken... —
The Tomb of Doom
And given the choice between four top-notch opponents to battle with the Tigers, 54% of pollsters want the Tigers to butt heads with Loserville, while UNC follows with 44%. Honestly, I'm a little surprised that more people didn't select Kansas as their desired opponent. I feel that those ...
Roy: Hansbrough “Extremely Doubtful” For Opener —
Tar Heel Fan
Hopefully just extreme caution on the part of UNC as well.
From ACC Now :
North Carolina forward Tyler Hansbrough is “extremely doubtful” to play in Saturday’s season opener against Penn, coach Roy Williams said today in a prepared statement.
“We’ve made the ...

The Big Lead
CBS Sports: On the front of its college basketball page, there is a countdown ticker to UNC-Duke. Seriously. Is there a competition between CBS and ESPN as to who can give Tobacco Road the better hummer? ( Friar Blog )

The men's team predicted to finish first, the women's fourth, and Tyler Hansbrough and Rashanda McCants make one (of six) covers. Keep your cover jinx thoughts to yourself.
