It took a complete turnaround in the second half for the UNC basketball program to escape South Bend with a win over Notre Dame on Wednesday night. But this late in the season, a win is a win and that’s all that matters for a team on the bubble.
UNC saved any chance they had at the NCAA Tournament by avoiding what would have been a bad loss. However, for the first 20 minutes of the game it looked like it wasn’t going to be their night, again.
But then the Tar Heels rallied and used a big second half to escape with the win.
Following the game, head coach Hubert Davis met the media to discuss the game and what went right and what went wrong. Here are a few quotes from that press conference as UNC gets set to prepare for a tough game against Virginia on Saturday at home.
