USA TODAY’s Indianapolis Star notes that the iconic schools last faced one another in 2022, which resulted in a 77-65 win for the Hoosiers at Assembly Hall.
The Hoosiers and Tar Heels have met a total of 16 times, with Indiana holding the 10-6 all-time head-to-head advantage.
It’ll be one of the first times that fans get to see new North Carolina head coach Michael Malone, who will go up against second-year Indiana coach Darian DeVries.
