Bye week comes at a good time for UNC

Posted Oct 10, 2005

All the North Carolina football team wanted to do was get out of town. After a 69-14 loss at Louisville on Saturday, there wasn't much else to do. Well, except for sit and wait. It was that kind of day. "Our plane trip back was miserable for a lot of reasons. It was a miserable ride and a quiet ride. I think most of the players were drained physically and emotionally." The Tar Heels will get a chance to recharge this week with their open date. (Durham Herald-Sun)
