Following Friday night's home outing, UNC's last non-conference contest of the regular season, the Tar Heels have a few days off before heading north for a bout against unranked Pitt (9-3, 0-1 ACC) at 7 p.m. Tuesday (ESPN).

That will be the first of three for UNC on an opponent's home court. The Tar Heels play at No. 18 Clemson (10-1, 1-0 ACC) on Jan. 6 before traveling the 30 minutes to Raleigh to face unranked NC State (9-3, 1-0 ACC) in a rivalry showdown four days later.
