North Carolina is back in the Sweet 16. Here are some bold predictions for the rest of the way!

Despite the heart attacks, Carolina is still alive in the Sweet 16.

Everything that could go wrong for the first sixteen minutes of the second half did, and the Heels were staring defeat in the face.

But from the brink of defeat, the Heels snatched victory away from the Razorbacks, and advanced to the Sweet 16 yet again.

This year, the Heels appear in the Sweet 16 for the third straight time.

Earlier this season we did a bold predictions piece for the Tar Heels. Unfortunately, only one of those came true, which was the Heels running the table at home.

We did pick Joel Berry to win ACC player of the year, but it ended up being Justin Jackson who won that award.

This time around we are doing bold predictions, but with a tournament twist. These predictions will revolve around a Tar Heel run to the championship, starting in the Sweet 16.

There are many situations the Heels would love to find themselves in during their run, but these predictions seem to be the most fun.

With chances at revenge, there are plenty of opportunities for the Heels to have some fun games in their run. Hopefully, the Heels run will be filled with some players becoming the most outstanding player along the way.

Keep in mind, these are bold, but being bold can be fun sometimes. Let’s go!
