(4)UNC 84, FSU 73 OT

It was supposed to be an easy out, but North Carolina needed overtime to dispose of the pesky Florida State Seminoles, 84-73.

FSU's Ryan Reid drained his first career three-pointer with 8.1 seconds left in regulation to tie the game at 67-all. The Tar Heels failed to launch a shot as the buzzer sounded.

Tyler Hansbrough top-scored for fourth-ranked North Carolina (21-1, 6-1 ACC) with 22 points. He also grabbed a career-high 21 rebounds.

The Tar Heels will host archrival Duke this Thursday (Manila time) in a high profile matchup between the potential second and third ranked teams. The latest rankings will be out tomorrow.
