Kendric Burney's picks lead Heels to win

Posted Nov 15, 2009
With a 33-24 win over No. 12 Miami on Saturday, North Carolina clinched a bowl bid for the second straight season. The Tar Heels have not been to consecutive bowl games since 1997 and 1998. They also won their third straight against Miami, and improved to 4-0 all-time at home against the Hurricanes, and fifth straight against a ranked opponent. All of the above is good, junior cornerback Kendric Burney said, but it's not the end of the season. (Raleigh News & Observer)
