Team History

The University of North Carolina has a long history as one of the winningest college basketball teams in the United States. UNC began playing basketball with its first game against Virginia Christian, on January 27, 1910, a 42-21 win for UNC[2].

Streaks

The Tar Heels own several of the most impressive streaks in college basketball history. They appeared in either the NCAA Tournament or National Invitation Tournament (NIT) every year from 1967 to 2001--including 27 straight appearances in the NCAA tourney from 1975-2001 (the all-time consecutive appearance record) after that competition allowed more than one team from a conference to get a bid. They also did not have a losing season from 1963 to 2001--the third-longest such streak in NCAA history, second only to UCLA and Bowling Green, who has only made the NCAA tourney 4 times but has made the NIT 53 times since 1950. The National Invitation Tournament (NIT) is a mens college basketball tournament operated by the National Collegiate Athletic Association. ...


From the ACC's inception in 1953 to 2001, the Tar Heels did not finish below fourth place in ACC play. From 1965 onward, they did not finish below third, and from 1965 to 1986 they did not finish below second. All of these streaks ended in the 2001-02 season, when the Tar Heels had a dreadful 8-20 season and finished 7th in conference play, behind Florida State and Clemson--their second losing conference record ever.


Additionally, the Tar Heels hold an interesting and possibly unique record in terms of a recurrent head-to-head rivalry. In 53 tries, the Tigers of Clemson University have never beaten UNC in men's basketball in a game that was played in Chapel Hill. (The only possible longer streak is Princeton's home dominance of Brown, which stood at 52 straight wins as of 1/14/2003.)
