North Carolina, Michigan Are Going To Be Matching Up For The ACC/ Big Ten Challenge In Chapel Hill During The 2021-2022 Season

The last time North Carolina and Michigan matched up was in the Battle 4 Atlantis in Paradise Island in the Bahamas on Thursday November 28, 2019!

In that game North Carolina lost by a score of 73-64!

Why?

Eli Brooks and his Michigan teammates kept rolling off screens, whipping the ball past defenders and burying shots with ease against a flummoxed highly ranked opponent.
Eli Brooks matched his career high with 24 points and Michigan ran off 19 unanswered points in the second half to score a big upset, beating the Tar Heels 73-64 on Thursday to reach the Battle 4 Atlantis championship game.
Isaiah Livers added 12 points for the Wolverines (6-0), who led by five early in the second half before exploding for a huge run that turned the matchup into an unexpected rout. Then the Wolverines held on amid the Tar Heels' frantic rally in the final 8 minutes.
