The Tar Heel hopes lay on the backs of national standouts Joseph Forte and Brendan Haywood, who combined for a whopping 48 of the team's 66 points. Virginia, on the other hand, garnered double-digit efforts from all five starters. Easy math as it is, the deciding factor of the game is easily identified. "We try to share the ball, and we don't have one star," Virginia coach Pete Gillen explained.
