0-2 Tar Heels facing 'a must-win situation'

Posted Sep 21, 2010
UNC isn’t desperate for a football win, but it’s moving in that direction. A season that was supposed to be one of the best in school history is more uncertain right now than it is promising. The Tar Heels are 0-2, have lost four consecutive games dating to last season, and now will go on the road for the first time this season. UNC will play at Rutgers on Saturday, and it needs to return home with the season’s first victory. (Winston-Salem Journal)
