ACC Championship Game: NC State Wolfpack vs. North Carolina Tar Heels | Full Game Highlights
Day after day they keep coming back they keep winning and they’re getting closer and closer to their ultimate goal can they win five games in five days become ACC tournament champions and of course get an automatic bid in the NCAA tournament one change in the starting
Lineup for the wolf pack DJ horn who’s been coming off the bench because of a hip flexor suffered last week is back in the lineup Jaden Taylor will not start rolled his ankle last night here’s the double on burns they put the double on then took it off quickly just to stop
The back down turn around by horn will drop through Elliot Kau has had two very good games against North Carolina State and his penetration is excellent right on Q I’m rounding up you’re so generous oh conell Lopez knocks down a three and he continues to score at a
Much higher rate five days next season great pass out of the double team to Michael oconnell and a great job by NC State to get back and for that break diara for three yes and state leads by 10 DJ Burns because he is a terrific passer mohhamad
Diara who has dominated the glass but Withers have made has made a great contribution of late coming off the bench last three games he’s averaging over 6 and 1 12 rebounds DJ horn is hot in the early going anybody thought that NC State was going to slow the tempo
Down they’re not they’re trying to get down the floor and get something early Morel went flying and then RJ Davis knocks down the jumper Davis again oconnell ahead to [Applause] Diara Horn off a screen floater oh boy DJ horn off to a great great start tonight already with nine Ingram draws the [Applause] double Ingram gets it back and hits the three from the quarters beat him by 2 five and then beat a very game and determined group of pit Panthers
7265 in the semis he’s the one guy who didn’t play on Tuesday because of the hit flexer they sat him out they were playing Louisville they were able to win without him so for him just his fourth and fourth four days Jaden Taylor bad ankle and all Jay how about four ass and
We know he’s a great passer how about four assist already for burns but he couldn’t keep up with Davis there Davis has extraord AR speed with the ball in the first game between these two they dominated on the offensive [Applause] glass Davis steps back and hits it how
Good is that expecting that life is RJ Davis great help by Michael oconnell but the great step back to Burns instead it’ll be a Baseline Drive by horn lefted short Davis another three hits again and three another step back in transition goes into the body of Al Connell splash splash Carol under four
To go in the first half horn another floater and another basket it’s really up to Armando Bott to step up there he kept retreating toward the basket Bott walks into a jumper and ties the game he’s got six reble helpful as he was coming by to reach in shot
Clock running down Taylor slips Burns for three oh boy left hand inside and then with the shot clock going down he knocks down his first three of the Year coach Keats let me shoot more of those 11 points and five assists for DJ Burns tonight well that was overh help
By Armando baa you can’t stay on the ball that long just don’t want to rush any anything right now with DJ horn on the bench with those three fouls and again it’s Burns and again the double good pass and another assist for burns the bucket for Ross and state backs off
Is back on top good do to Davis Davis to Ryan gets it off and hit it cor M Ryan bangs home a three at the end of the first half the end of the half for Carolina cormack ran getting free in the corner using the shot bait
Getting the shot off so it’s the Tar Heels by one at halftime with an AC tournament Championship on the line see they don’t want him passing out for open threes oh a steel by bacock Ingram a corner three oh and what a mistake there by state they Gott pushing burns out almost
To the three-point line he gets where he wants to get and he banks it home yeah this is what he did to Duke he wound up with 27 points but Duke played him one-on-one in the post to shut everybody else down Burns goes down they play on in
Bott Banks it home played at UCLA then transferred to Georgetown same kind of player and there’s a little flop right there against one of the best offensive players in the country and then a rejection horn started his career at Virginia but staying in front of
Somewhat as quick as RJ Davis he made it look easy it is not and it was a multiple effort defensive exchange at a 16 rebound performance at a 14 and a 12 and he’s got seven tonight Morel the turn around on this game and it’s been on both ends
Of the floor little turnaround jumper and that is not an easy shot that’s over the left shoulder to start it out Carolina needs to get the ball inside more often they do right there Kad with a Nifty feed into Bott this a little side pick and roll as bott’s got those three
Fouls burns up and in does it again Morel for three Davis the rebound for the Tarheels back from kdo and Davis lays it in that is car the line of basketball how beautiful was that the give and go I’m guessing they try to keep him as far
Away from RJ Davis as they can on the defensive end oconnell pulls up and hits wow oconnell now watch RJ Davis go underneath he actually got picked off but tried to Gap that ball screen Carolina needs to put him in some action go right at DJ horn Davis from the
Corner with the answer it’s the long two for Carolina and then on the other end the step back that was a Three crossover floater yes Taylor on Davis now Ingram is doing that there’s the help from diara to swatt it out of bounds Caroline ball with five on the shot clock right under the basket comes over gets vertical and knocks the ball away away with his left
Hand big time Big upset of Duke and then Virginia in overtime last night another tear drop for RJ Davis it’s a five-point game get out of here DJ horn wanted to take Ingram but instead it’s into Burns he’s doubled there goes the double there’s the open three and morcel hits
It afterwards and Casey morcel after the double team on burns they threw it around the horn and Casey morcel injured cutting it out just like this entire NC State team gate by eight that’s the reason that doubling is so difficult on DJ Burns Davis rejected by
Diara is he going to back him down from that far out good pass into horn who lays it in just a great cut from the weak side just a step and and go all the way to the rim Harrison Ingram couldn’t block [Applause] it Carolina came all the way back had
The lead briefly here in the second half and now States up 11 but a steal by Davis to get it down to nine under three to go and Hubert Davis wants the full court pressure Ingram for three tipped out to Davis he’ll take a three and diara with yet another rebound
And he’s fouled again Davis can’t get it to go Middlebrooks the rebound they’ll foul him and now I think they can finally [Applause] relax it’s been 37 years since this program won the ACC tournament championship [Applause] coaches you better let those guys sleep in tomorrow they have had an unbelievable week Ingram for [Applause] three and that is going to do it a remarkable astounding week from the North Carolina State wol pack and let
The celebration begin in R [Applause] they earned every bit of This

NC State seems to be peaking at the right time
Dang get the microphone away from the big mouth fan.
2017 NC State grad screaming and crying all the way from the PNW 🥲❤🐺🤍 GO PACK!!!
@1:55 literally some of the worst editing thanks ESPN
Man I hate my HEELS lost but man hats off and so much respect to State man they deserved it they played their hearts out on both end man defended us well made us make mistakes I got nothing but respect for those young men great job congratulations
Vegas cleaned up on this tournament.
So glad State won!
I understand not doubling Burns because of his incredible passing ability it for guards to be one pass away why are they not dropping down to harass him ? Bacot was left on an island & Burns destroyed him in isolation the entire game , he’s too nimble, agile , strong & smart to allow him to play straight up. Congrats to State though a five day run is so tough. They definitely earned it
Yes, stick it tarheels, you just got beat, go state
First time NC State won the ACC championship since the magical Negro…….of course I’m talking about Vinny Del Negro.
Saw a post from X. Six current ACC schools won the national championship before. NC State beat the other five to win this tournament.
"NOT A REAL RIVAL"
One of the craziest run ever
I'm a state fan through and through,
State Grad 2013. It will probably take a couple of days to set in. My heart was battered from the days of the Cardiac Pack but it has now been renewed. I haven't been this happy about any sport Championship as I have this one. GO PACK!
The lady screaming next to the mic the whole game was insufferable
NC State became a team anointed by destiny following the VA win. Every NCSU player was like Popeye after chugging a can of spinach especially Burns, ok, a case of spinach!
The achilles "heel" for UNC as has been most of the season was repeated boneheaded plays and clunker shots by Ryan other than the end of the half score. Was hoping after he knocked himself out (yeah, he did) he might get his shot back but it only got worse.
So tired of Ryan hiding after he plays a terrible game refusing to speak with the press.
Go ahead, search for his post-game interview after last night's debacle.
Also telling that none of the other players or Davis even mentioned his name. Ryan is a headcase, period, hard stop.
At least it wasn't Duke
Losing this game will be a blessing for UNC, wasn't going to finish the season winning 15 in a row to win a championship; now they can reboot, regroup and go on a legendary run to win it all. Meanwhile, NC State, with its big sloppy offensive foul getting way with annoying center, will be an early dismissal despite its automatic bid.
someone needs to shut their mamma up🤣
How sweet it is! The fact that the win was over UNC makes it even sweeter.
Wolfpack beat Duke and Carolina.Glory, Glory Glory 😂
RALEIGH WOLFPACK 😅🎉
Sincerely happy for this men’s team at NCState 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 It’s been a loooooong time coming!! Go Pack 🐺
This was looong overdue. Congrats state🎉🎉🎉
What's Mack "Lard Gut" Brown got to say about this?!
Huber Davis can't coach 👎🏾👎🏾👎🏾👎🏾
The refs changed their style for the whole tourney. They called it more like the big 12. No harm no foul. I appreciate that. Go Pack !!
I will take this entire last week with me to the grave. I will never take this success for granted. This is something us as nc state fans thought might not ever happen again. Getting to see and experience this with my dad has been one of the best things to ever happen to me. Jimmy V would be so proud of this team, just like all of Wolfpack nation is. WHY NOT US?!?
If I lived in North Carolina, I would honestly be going to NC State University than UNC at Chapel Hill. (19 years old)
I bleed more red/white than sky blue/white.
Too bad I live in the middle of freaking Kansas (I’m definitely not a Jayhawk fan).
Duke fan but shoutout to ncstate
NC State❤🏀❤🏀❤🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉💯!!!
From a Texas Tech Red Raider… congratulations on a helluva run to take the ACC 'ship. See y'all in the Round 1 of the big tourney. Tbh, with our big man Washington out, I think y'all are one of the worst draws we could get! 😂 Congratulations again! 🎊
im thrilled go wolfpacks
My daughter came home for Spring Break. We watched, we yelled, we celebrated.
The comparison to the 1983 run is uncanny.
Needless to say, while I miss her already, I am beyond thrilled that she is back on the NC State campus today.
Enjoy the ride, I think there is more fun to come.
Was fixed. On Friday after nc state beat Duke the espn headline said ‘nc state sends game to ot on improbable 3 pt shot and wins ACC tourney’
They messed up the headline and let it go before correcting it.
Nice win for state it’s always nice to see someone shake up the blue bloods in the ACC
2010 grad, very proud of how NC State stood up and took home the title, go Pack!
My son attends NC State now….they went nuts on campus! It would've been even crazier on Hillsborough St had this week not been their Spring Break. A lot of kids were not even back on campus yet. The thing that really hurts is that the NC State women could've easily brought an ACC Title back home as well, but they came up just short to Notre Dame in the Championship game. That would have been a great story had both the men and women won the title in the same year! Great job by both programs and big congrats to the NC State men! Job well done. Hopefully, both teams can make some serious noise in the NCAA Tournament. Hey, why not us??
what is that mickey mouse/donald duck voice in the background?
