UNC basketball isn't ranked — pretty far from it. The Tar Heels (6-4, 1-0 ACC) sit No. 36 overall in the NCAA NET Rankings. Their struggles and underperformers, especially in compiling a deflating 1-4 record in Quad 1 games, are well-documented at this point.

That said, fourth-year head coach Hubert Davis and his Heels have won two in a row by knocking off Georgia Tech, 68-65, in Chapel Hill in their ACC opener on Dec. 7 and enjoying junior newcomer Cade Tyson's breakout UNC performance in Saturday's 93-67 home victory over La Salle.

Now, UNC basketball has a prime opportunity to put some more respect back on its name when the squad faces the No. 9-ranked Florida Gators (10-0, 0-0 SEC) in Charlotte at 7 p.m. ET Tuesday (ESPN).
