Michigan hosts North Carolina tonight (9:30 p.m., ESPN) with a chance to exact revenge for an early season loss in Chapel Hill last season. This rematch was expected to happen in Los Angeles last March, but Texas A&M crashed the party with an upset win over the Tar Heels.
This year’s game features some new faces, but doesn’t lack for intrigue. Both teams are ranked in the top 15 nationally and both excel at playing wildly different styles of basketball.
