Rutgers Visits Chapel Hill to Take on #10 Tar Heels

Can Fred Hill Jr. find some holiday magic and defeat the Tar Heels?

Can Fred Hill Jr. find some holiday magic and defeat the Tar Heels?

The Rutgers basketball team will hope to catch #10 North Carolina with a holiday hangover, as the Knights visit the Dean Dome in Chapel Hill tonight.  In case you hadn't heard, North Carolina is the defending NCAA Champion, and the Knights have not beat a Top 25 team in it's last 11 tries.  This will be Rutgers first venture out of the state of New Jersey, and if Rutgers wants to keep this game close, they'll need to rely on the nation's leading shot-blocker, Hamady Ndiaye, who recorded 18 blocks last game against Saint Peters.

The game will be televised nationally on ESPN2 and will tip-off at 8:30.
