The player that drew some ooohs from the crowd with a slick crossover dribble, the player who made the sweet pass inside was North Carolina guard Quentin Thomas. The Tar Heels are undefeated in games in which Thomas, a 6-3 senior, plays well. They are 1-0. Sports fans like to dress the way their icons do. For kids and college students at the Dean E. Smith Center, that means dressing like the players. They wear jerseys and T-shirts. For adults that means dressing like head coach Roy Williams. That means sweater vests. The fans don't look good in them either. The battle between the big men, N.C. State's J.J. Hickson and North Carolina's Tyler Hansbrough, was compelling. Hickson, a freshman, did not back down from the North Carolina junior. They banged, pushed and grabbed offensive rebounds. The duel was compelling. Nice way to spend a Saturday afternoon.
