The Tar Heels are headed to Vegas to play in this weekend’s CBS Sport Classic, but who they’ll face is still up in the air. UCLA cancelled their Wednesday night game against Alabama State hours before tip-off due to Covid-19 protocols. The second match-up of the day, Kentucky vs Ohio State, has already been cancelled due to positive COVID-19 results within the OSU program. Reports are if UCLA can’t play, which is looking more and more likely, the Tar Heels will face Kentucky.
The Tar Heels added to speculation about the change when they tweeted this Gif:
UNC vs Kentucky isn’t a bad backup plan. An official announcement about the change has not been made.
