• Carolina committed nine turnovers, marking the third time in as many games UNC committed fewer than 10 turnovers.
• This is the first time since turnovers became an official stat in 1979-80 that Carolina has committed fewer than 10 turnovers in each of the first three games.
• The Tar Heels held the Cowboys to 36.5% shooting from the floor, the third time in as many games UNC held its opponent under 37%.
• Carolina has won 31 games in a row when it holds the opponent below 40% shooting from the floor.
• Wyoming shot 40.5% from the floor in the second half. That was the first time in six halves this season an opponent shot better than 40% from the floor in a half.

• Five Tar Heels scored in double figures for the second game in a row.
