Reese, Pam and Alex discuss UNC's loss to Miami last night.

The Miami Hurricanes defeated No. 11 North Carolina 75-66 in ACC play, snapping UNC’s five-game winning streak. The Hurricanes led from start to finish in Coral Gables, using strong interior play and defense to control the game. Malik Reneau recorded 16 points and 10 rebounds, while Ernest Udeh Jr. added 15 points and 10 rebounds, helping Miami dominate the paint and the boards. UNC struggled offensively, particularly in the second half where they shot just 26.5% and were unable to mount a comeback. Miami’s rebounding advantage and defensive intensity proved decisive, and fans stormed the court after the final buzzer. After UNC's win over Duke, and this loss to Miami, should UNC fans be worried about their Tar Heels? What happened?
