DETROIT — North Carolina will leave the Motor City the way it entered the men's basketball season in October. A resounding No. 1.

The Tar Heels crushed Michigan State's NCAA tournament title hopes with an 89-72 victory Monday night at Ford Field in front of a record 72,922 fans, most of whom cheered MSU (31-7) in its attempt to become the first team since UCLA in 1975 to win the national championship in its home state.

I really enjoyed the evening watching the game at the home of Phil Richards - who owns a BIG SCREEN TV. Phil and I laughed and jumped as we watched the game ( even though Phil is a huge Duke fan) and we observed our newest pastoral staff member at NRN - Ryan Walker - from Michigan - squirm a little but demonstrated a good sport attitude.

I must admit - I was surprised by the boo's I received on Sunday as I wore my Carolina blue vest - but it's okay - I have enjoyed wearing my Carolina sweatshirt in my home everyday this week.
