Sneak Peek: Mike Brey's Pre Game Pep Talk
"ONE GAME... If we played them seven times -- they might beat us three.
BUT NOT TONIGHT!
TONIGHT -- WE ARE THE GREATEST COLLEGE BASKETBALL TEAM IN AMERICA."
The world has forgotten we've won 3 of the 6 games we've played against North Carolina since we've joined the ACC -- including 3 of the last 4.
WHY NOT AGAIN TONIGHT!
GO IRISH!
