UNC Finds Out Its NCAA Tournament Seed and Opponents

UNC is six games away from a National Championship.

North Carolina finished the season with a 27-7 record, and won the ACC regular season title. In turn, they were rewarded with a one-seed. Now, UNC is six games away from its seventh national title. March Madness is full of surprises, and it is never easy. Can the Tar Heels get it done?

One-Seed Tar Heels

UNC will head out west. This is North Carolina’s first one-seed since 2019. They are joined by UConn, Purdue, and Houston as top-seeds. The Tar Heels did enough in the regular season and conference tournament to pull away from Arizona, Tennessee, and Iowa State.

First Matchup

UNC will open the tournament against the play-in winner of Wagner vs. Howard.

UNC will play on Thursday in Charlotte, North Carolina.
