GOG 2011-12 #04: North Carolina

UK is coming off a dominating win over St. John's. North Carolina took it's first loss last week and struggled against a very good Wisconsin squad on Wednesday. None of which means anything in what is easily the biggest regular season game of the non-conference season in all of college basketball and maybe the biggest regular season game period.

Tentative Upcoming GOG Schedule (to help you plan your GOGness):

GOG #4: UNC

GOG #5: Indiana

GOG #6: Chattanooga, Samford, Loyola, Lamar

GOG #7: Louisville

  • GOG introduction here.
  • Congratulations to GoLightning for winning GOG #3! Full results.
  • Match-up and player info here.

Entries are due by tip-off at Noon Saturday, December 3.
