Citadel blue over Tar Heels' size, speed

Posted Sep 1, 2009
No matter which brand of blue you prefer (and here's a secret -- when The Citadel orders its football uniforms from Nike, it orders "Carolina blue"), there will be lots of light blue on display at Kenan Stadium on Saturday night when the Citadel Bulldogs visit the No. 21 Tar Heels. But the 60,000 fans on hand and viewers on ESPN 360.com will have little trouble telling the teams apart -- the really big, really fast guys will be wearing Carolina blue.
