Rivalry Transcends Records

Posted Nov 22, 2006

North Carolina is playing its best football of the season, which comes to an end Saturday at Duke. The Tar Heels are coming off an impressive 23-9 win over N.C. State and will be a pre-game favorite against the Blue Devils. "This could be the first (Duke) senior class to capture the Victory Bell twice since the early '80s," said an optimistic Ted Roof, referring to the four-wheeled trinket possessed by the winning school.
