Michael Malone on what went wrong for UNC against Georgia

The North Carolina Tar Heels came up short on Friday night, facing their toughest test of the season so far. Despite having a nine-point lead in the second half, the Tar Heels watched Georgia go on a run and close out the game for a 78-70 win . The loss dropped the Tar Heels to 3-1 on the year and we saw them have some of the same struggles they have been happening. They were once again outrebounded by the opponent, leading to second-chance opportunities for Georgia and the Bulldogs took advantage. UNC also struggled down the stretch shooting and failed to hold the lead. After the game, Michael Malone talked about the loss and where UNC goes from here. All quotes via Inside Carolina . On what went wrong in the final 10 minutes “At the end of close games, your habits come out. Do you have good habits? Do you have bad habits? And whether it’s a missed free-throw box-out, whether it’s a missed box-out, whether it’s a turnover, whether it’s not running off a shooter from the three-point line, we just had too many breakdowns at the end. Obviously, we did not shoot the ball well tonight

Nation's top available recruit announces commitment decision

Former Georgia Bulldogs recruiting target Jatori Williams has found a new home. He committed to the Auburn Tigers , according to Hayes Fawcett . Williams is a four-star interior offensive lineman in the class of 2027. The 6-foot-5, 320-pounder plays for Central Phenix City High School in Phenix City, Alabama, which is about 35 miles away from Auburn. He is the No. 5 interior offensive lineman and No. 97 overall prospect in the nation. Prior to his commitment, Williams was the top uncommitted recruit in the country. All of the nation's top-200 recruits are committed to college football programs. Williams decommitted from the Miami Hurricanes on Oct. 13. The Bulldogs were in Williams' top five schools during his original commitment process. When he decommitted from Miami, many thought it would be for Georgia . Instead, the allure of playing college football near his hometown led him to Auburn. Auburn has the No. 11 recruiting class in the nation, but it still lags behind Georgia's fifth-ranked class. Georgia flipped Mark Matthews, the No. 1 offensive tackle in the nation, from Texas A&M on Nov. 9. The Bulldogs likely were not in the market for Williams after landing Matthews. Georgia has earned

ESPN predicts winner of Georgia at North Carolina basketball

The North Carolina Tar Heels (3-0) host the Georgia Bulldogs (2-0) on Friday, Nov. 13 in a battle between the ACC and SEC. Both Georgia and North Carolina made the NCAA Tournament a season ago, but both teams failed to win a game in March Madness. The Georgia-North Carolina game will be the first true test of the season for both teams. The North Carolina game will be the first road game for Georgia. The Bulldogs have a veteran team, but the Dean E. Smith Center is not an easy place to play. UNC has not lost at home since March 8, 2025. The Tar Heels went undefeated at home last season. "It did not finish the way we wanted to finish, but our mantra in this program is growth every single day," Georgia basketball coach Mike White said after UGA beat Florida Gulf Coast 80-72 at home this week. "We have got to get better tomorrow, and we have got to learn from this, but I know we only won by eight. We got better tonight because we showed good glimpses." North Carolina has had a bit of an inconsistent start to the season with the Tar Heels having
