The 2024-25 UNC basketball team hasn't defeated a top-100 opponent yet. But it's worth noting that Hubert Davis' fourth batch of Tar Heels (3-1, 0-0 ACC) has exhibited in-sync behaviors in averaging 93.2 points while allowing only 73.0 per game, despite a 92-89 road loss to the top-ranked Kansas Jayhawks two weeks ago.
