Thank UNC for the Pitt match-up

Posted Dec 7, 2009
When the Pitt Panthers played in the Meineke bowl in 2003 it sold only 3,000 tickets of an allotted 12,000. This time around Pitt can thank UNC for a trip to the queen city. The Heels preferred to play the Big East team that is in the BCS Top 25. And the Heels sell lots of tickets to the game in Charlotte. The Heels can also chip in to sell Pitt's allotment. As for the game, Carolina better not lose to a team N.C. State beat. (WRAL Sports Fan)
