This was a solid win. There was nothing overly spectacular, but there was more good than bad, and that is really all you can ask for the first game of the season, especially one played on… wait for it… A FREAKIN’ AIRCRAFT CARRIER! Also, (extremely) odd location aside, it should be noted that the previous 7 season openers were against: ODU, Santa Clara (loss), Gardiner-Webb, Sacred Heart, Davidson, Penn, FIU and Lipscomb, so this was by far the highest profile and toughest opponent that the Heels have faced in an opener under Roy. That being said, it was still a game, and there is a still a boxscore. So with the standard “Air Craft Carrier” caveats in mind, let’s dive in and go beyond the box.
