KEY GAME INFORMATION

N CAROLINA: Last season: 33-7, lost in NCAA championship game.
Nickname: Tar Heels.
Coach: Roy Williams.
Conference: Atlantic Coast.
Who's gone: G Marcus Paige, F Brice Johnson, C Joel James.
Who's back: G Joel Berry II, a junior likely to get the first crack as the successor to Paige when it comes to taking a big shot. G/F Justin Jackson, a junior who averaged about 12 points per game. F Kennedy Meeks, a 6-foot-10 senior and the team's top returning rebounder. F Isaiah Hicks, a senior who can provide scoring and rebounding if he stays out of foul trouble.
Who's new: F Tony Bradley Jr., a 6-10 McDonald's All-American set for an immediate contributing role up front. G Brandon Robinson, a 6-5 freshman wing. G Seventh Woods, a 6-2 guard known for his athleticism. G Shea Rush, the son of former UCLA player JaRon Rush.
The Skinny: Losing Paige and Johnson were huge blows for a team that lost to Villanova on a last-second 3-pointer on the final Monday night of the season. But the Tar Heels' top four upperclassmen all boast double-digit scoring potential and the team has plenty of depth on the wing with the return of Nate Britt and Theo Pinson. If Hicks can stay on the floor after past battles with foul trouble and Bradley provides a reliable interior presence, this looks like a group that can contend for an ACC title and a Final Four berth.

BOSTON COLLEGE: Last season: 7-25
Nickname: Eagles.
Coach: Jim Christian.
Conference: Atlantic Coast.
Who's gone: G Eli Carter, C Dennis Clifford, G Matt Milon, G Sammy Barnes-Thompkins.
Who's back: G Jerome Robinson, who was second on team with averages of 11.7 points and 3.0 assists and totals of 70 assists and 32 steals but missed nine ACC games with a broken wrist. F A.J. Turner, who was fourth on the team in scoring (5.8 points) and rebounding (3.6). F Garland Owens, the only returning senior and one of two players to start all 32 games last year. F Ervins Meznieks, who played for the Latvian team that finished fifth in the under-20 European Championships.
Who's new: F Connor Tava, a transfer from Western Michigan, where he missed all of last season recovering from a broken foot. F Mo Jeffers, a shot-blocking transfer from Delaware. Freshman G Ty Graves, who led High Point Christian Academy to a 24-6 record and the North Carolina Class 3-A championship game.
The Skinny: The Eagles went winless (0-18) in the ACC last season and finished the season with a 19-game losing streak. Then they lost their top two scorers and their leaders in assists, blocks, rebounds and steals.

PREVIEW

North Carolina heads north to take on BC

BOSTON -- With his first 800 victories out of the way, Roy Williams goes for No. 801 when his No. 9 North Carolina Tar Heels visit Boston College on Saturday.

And the next win, whether it comes Saturday or not, will also be the next one without his friend, Barack Obama, in the White House.

In an interview just published in GQ, Williams, talking about the now-former president's basketball talents, said, "He has (some) sneaky little lefty, old-school moves. One of my players, Jack Wooten, tried to block his shot and I yelled at him. I said, 'Jack, this guy could be the President of the United States. What're you trying to do that for?!' And President Obama just picked up on it so quickly. He said, 'You see that secret service guy over there?'"

He added, "Pardon the phrase because we're talking about the President of the United States, "but my man doesn't have the greatest basketball body. Let's just be honest about this.

"One time I told him, I said, 'President Obama, you've got a job like a bad basketball coaching job. You got there in situations that were really difficult, and you got it changed and turned around.' The economy, the unemployment was like 10 percent and it's down to 4 percent. But I said, "You're probably never going to get credit for doing it." And he just laughed."

Williams, who still has his job, has the Tar Heels coming north with five straight wins, seven in the last eight games.

Monday night, the tar Heels presented Williams with win No. 800, making him the eighth coach to reach that milestone, and former UNC star Michael Jordan presented the coach with a pair of Air Jordans, tweeting: "One of a kind."

"For me the best news is I'm not dying," Williams, the second-fastest ever to 800, said in a ceremony after the win over Syracuse. "We're going to coach a few more.

"It was never a dream of mine to win 800 games. But it was a dream of mine to coach guys like this."

Saturday, UNC (17-3, 5-1 ACC) faces a Boston College team that has two conference wins, two more than it had last season. But the Eagles (9-10, 2-4) have lost two straight, at Syracuse and at home against No. 16 Virginia, and dropped four of their last five.

BC coach Jim Christian didn't think his team came out with enough intensity to have any chance of beating a ranked team.

"I didn't think that we came out to play Virginia, a ranked team, with the energy and emotion that you need to play them," Christian said.

BC sophomore Jerome Robinson, who teams with freshman Ky Bowman to form a strong 1-2 punch, has had two straight nine-point games as his scoring average has dropped under 20 a game (19.7). His 13 20-point games are the most of any player in a Power 5 conference but he is 7-for-25 from the floor, 1-for-8 from 3-point range, the past two games.

"He'll come out of it. He's a good player," Christian said.

UNC, which has defeated BC nine straight times to take a 15-5 series lead, is led by Justin Jackson, averaging 18.8 points and 5.1 rebounds per game. Joel Berry II is at 15.8 points and 4.2 assists and Kennedy Meeks 12.7 points and 9.7 rebounds per game.
