NEW ORLEANS — In this city of old haunts and mysterious hexes, where the sound of music is as much of a part of the culture as the spirits who give this place its soul, North Carolina has made its share of basketball history, and now seeks more magic alongside the Mississippi Delta on the final Monday night of this delirious season.
Now, though, comes a colliding of worlds and spells, the good juju of the Tar Heels' New Orleans triumphs left to work its might against Kansas, of all opponents, and all the odd history between two schools that have shaped college basketball at least as much if not far more than any others.
You better believe Roy Williams spit in the river.
