North Carolina's frontcourt of Armando Bacot, Pete Nance, and Jalen Washington has seemingly battled injuries all season long. All three have been banged up in some form or fashion essentially all season long, and while not an excuse, definitely provides an explanation for some of the losses this year. The frontcourt has been less hampered, and even got D'Marco Dunn back quickly. Caleb Love and RJ Davis have been stalwarts. If the frontcourt can find consistency, Carolina could be in store for a big run. The UNC women's team hosts Duke tonight for a massive ACC showdown. After an 0-3 conference start, the Heels have strung together 3 in a row, including wins over top-11 opponents Notre Dame and NC State. Duke is 6-0 in conference (the lone remaining undefeated ACC team in conference play). Carolina will need a big game from Deja Kelly rebounding from her 5-point performance against NC State on Sunday. John Garcia, Jr. joins Isaac Schade to discuss Carolina's two transfer WRs, Nate McCollum and Devontez Walker. McCollum, a slot receiver from Georgia Tech, and Walker, a big outside receiver from Kent State, slot in as nice replacements for Josh Downs and Antoine Green. Additionally both players still have two years of eligibility.

NFL – National Football League – Week 18 Yesterday Detroit Lions 20, Green Bay Packers 16 Minnesota Vikings 29, Chicago Bears 13 Houston Texans 32, Indianapolis Colts 31 Lions 20, Packers 16 – Rodgers, Packers lose 20-16 to Lions, miss playoffs Aaron Rodgers threw a late interception on the final pass of what might be his last game, and the Green Bay Packers lost 20-16 to the Detroit Lions to miss the playoffs. After winning four straight games and receiving plenty of help from other teams, the Packers had control of their postseason fate heading into the final game of the NFL regular season. But they fell short against the Lions, who had been eliminated from the playoffs earlier Sunday. Jamaal Williams' second 1-yard touchdown run of the night against his former team put the Lions (9-8) ahead with 5:55 remaining. Williams had 17 touchdown runs to break the Lions' single-season record that Barry Sanders had set in 1991. Green Bay only got as far as its own 33 on its next series before Kerby Joseph picked off Rodgers’ deep throw on third-and-10 with 3 1/2 minutes left.  Seattle instead earned the NFC's final playoff spot and will play at San Francisco in the opening round. The Packers missed the playoffs for the first time in Matt LaFleur's four seasons as coach.  In the two games against Detroit this season, Rodgers was intercepted four times, three of them by Joseph of the Lions. Vikings 29, Bears 13 – Cousins dominates first half as Vikings beat Bears 29-13 Kirk Cousins threw for 225 yards and a touchdown in the first half and watched the rest of the way as the NFC North champion Minnesota Vikings tuned up for the playoffs by beating the Chicago Bears 29-13. Cousins led three scoring drives as the Vikings grabbed a 16-6 halftime lead. They remained in control the rest of the way after getting blown out at Green Bay the previous week. The Bears, who held out star Justin Fields, set a franchise record with their 14th loss and extended one by dropping their 10th game in a row. With Houston winning 32-31 at Indianapolis, Chicago gets the No. 1 pick in the draft for the first time since 1947. Texas 32, Colts 31 – Texans rally for 32-31 win at Indy but lose top draft pick Davis Mills threw a 28-yard touchdown pass to Jordan Akins with 50 seconds left then connected with Akins on the 2-point conversion to give Houston a 32-31 victory at Indianapolis. The victory cost the Texans the No. 1 overall draft pick. They’ll select second, behind the Chicago Bears. Indy, meanwhile, lost its seventh straight under interim coach Jeff Saturday while solidifying a top-five draft selection. The final chapter was a surprise twist after Indy rallied from a 10-point third-quarter deficit to take a 31-24 lead with 3:33 to go. But Mills converted two fourth down plays, including the fourth-and-20 pass to Akins to win it.

The Lions delivered a performance that enables them to go into the offseason believing their playoff drought will end very soon. Jamaal Williams rushed for two touchdowns against his former team as the Lions capped their late-season surge with a 20-16 victory at Green Bay, eliminating the Packers from playoff contention. The Lions’ win sent Seattle to the playoffs. Detroit needed the Seahawks to lose and then beat the Packers to make the postseason for the first time since 2016. NFL – Bears get No. 1 pick after Texans rally for win at Indy Thanks to an old friend, the Chicago Bears are on the clock for the NFL draft. Chicago will pick No. 1 for the first time since 1947 after it lost 29-13 to the Minnesota Vikings in its season finale. It was the 10th straight loss for the Bears, extending a franchise record. Even with all that misery, the Bears were headed for the No. 2 selection before Lovie Smith coached Houston to a wild 32-31 victory at Indianapolis. The 64-year-old Smith coached the Bears from 2004-12, going 81-63 and making the playoffs three times.

The North Carolina men's basketball team is back in action tonight hosting College of Charleston. Armando Bacot, Caleb Love, RJ Davis, Leaky Black, Pete Nance and the rest of Hubert Davis' squad look to bounce back from their less than stellar season opener. The Tar Heels will look to remind the nation why they are the preseason number one team in the country. The UNC defense looked strong on Monday, including freshman Seth Trimble, but the offense needs to get back to form. The Carolina women got off to a hot start, obliterating Jackson St. with players scoring in double-digits, led by Kennedy Todd-Williams. Perhaps most impressively, Deja Kelly was not one of those four. Carolina is back in action on Saturday vs. TCU.

The UNC Women's basketball team is expecting big things in Coach Courtney Banghart's fourth year in Chapel Hill. The team is returning four starters from a Sweet 16 team that gave eventual national champion South Carolina a run for their money. Deja Kelly, Alyssa Utsby, Kennedy Todd-Williams, and Anya Poole are the four returning starters while Eva Hodgson projects to join them in the starting lineup. Despite not starting last season, Hodgson averaged 25 minutes a game and should slot seamlessly into the lineup. In addition to the experienced talent, the Tar Heels have a bevy of newcomers and players returning from injury who will bring youth and excitement to the team. A key to success for the women will be replacing Carlie Littlefield's on and off-court leadership acumen. It will important that someone takes over those reins. The Tar Heels return their top four scorers, their top two three-point shooters, not to mention that Hodgson is third among active DI players in career three-point percentage. It should be another great year for the women. Make sure you tune in for Live Action on Friday evening and mark your calendars for the first regular season game which is Wednesday, November 9.
