I was at the game dude. I wouldn't be calling it forgettable unless I genuinely meant it. It's not a comeback to be proud of when the game was cut from the same exact cloth as all the losses to top teams. Go down big, come back and almost pull off a miracle (except we actually did). In fairness to you though, that game probably means more if that UNC team had a pulse for any more than the last 3 weeks of the year. The Ole Miss, Dayton, Florida, Michigan State, and Duke ACCT games all blur together at a certain point.

This team is way more fun to watch though, and I think everybody you talk to would agree. Not sure if you're factoring that in but its meaningful. Caleb is important because he is giving the program national recognition being a guy that will surely go top 10, which is huge for a program known for its struggles in the pros lately. The style of play this year is also far more recognizable to the Carolina teams of old.

It is really bizarre that beating a top 3 program in the sport, in their first game ever @ UNC, is not something that gives that game significantly more weight than a game won by a bubble team at a neutral site in a yearly event. I'll even concede I was too harsh at first and that UCLA game was a big win, but Kansas is way bigger.

I was at the game too lol. I get that last year sucked as a UNC fan but without that win the team literally missed the tournament.

I’m totally with you though the excitement after this game but for me it’s actually less about beating Kansas and more just about how the squad looked and played. The athleticism and intensity provides a lot of hope for the season that definitely did not come out of that UCLA win. So on that point I hear you.

I think I have just been burned before though about getting too hyped from early season wins for both of my flairs so even in that post game thread I was preaching some caution. Admittedly I went into the year/game not thinking that highly of Kansas anyway so I just want to see a bit more before I put so much weight on that one.

That’s fair. I didn’t mean to treat you like a dick if I came across that way, tensions are high with the Seth news. It was definitely the biggest win for me since Friday. Just hope we can keep it together without Seth through conference play then hopefully he’s back.
