Utes want to settle issue early with North Carolina

Posted Oct 1, 2005

After three close calls in four games, Utah safety Casey Evans says he and his teammates need to eliminate the element of suspense. North Carolina, though wouldn't mind a down-to-the-wire contest Saturday after last season's injury-marred blowout on the road against the Utes. "We just need to focus better as the game goes on," Evans said. "Just know that it's the fourth quarter and just know to turn it up even more." (Lexington Dispatch)
