NC State travels to North Carolina at 7 p.m. tonight on ESPN, weather permitting.
The two rivals played each other Jan. 11 in Raleigh, with the Tar Heels narrowly winning 63-61. UNC has shaken up its lineup and have gone 4-5 since then, and in jeopardy of missing the NCAA Tournament.
NC State’s loss to UNC started a nine-game losing skid, which was snapped with a 70-62 win over Boston College on Saturday. The Wolfpack are 10-15 overall and 3-11 in the ACC, and fighting to reach the ACC Tournament with six games left.
