It's likely the Tar Heels will be the No. 1 team in the nation when the polls come out soon, though Oklahoma's performance at Baylor coupled with the way the Heels have played recently might not make this a slam dunk. My question to you guys, and this can be answered after the rankings come out, do you want the Heels to be No. 1 given how they are playing?
The players have acknowledged after the last few games, all so-so performances, that focus and letting up have been issues. Is the top spot in the nation because other teams are losing a reward this club needs right now?
You might say the motivation to maintain that perch will be good for the Heels. Others may say a false sense of accomplishment given recent play could be dangerous. Maybe there are other takes, as well.
