About This Game
North Carolina crashed the defending national champions' tournament run with an overtime thriller, proving they belong among college basketball's elite. The Tar Heels' balanced attack—headlined by RJ Davis's 30 points and Armando Bacot's 15-point, 16-rebound performance—overwhelmed Baylor's depleted roster despite the Bears' desperate second-half surge. What made this victory remarkable was NC's efficiency from beyond the arc: 11 three-pointers converted while Baylor managed just 9, a crucial advantage in a game decided by seven points. Though the Tar Heels committed 21 turnovers and fouled 27 times, they controlled the glass (56 rebounds to Baylor's 43) and executed when it mattered most in the extra period. The script seemed destined for heartbreak after Brady Manek's ejection and Love fouling out, but North Carolina's ability to rebound—literally and figuratively—in crunch time secured a Sweet 16 berth. Every possession of this thrilling tournament battle is preserved in the Gameprint, a custom visualization of all 398 plays that tells the story of resilience and depth against a legendary opponent.
