Voters noticing Carolina, but Heels still outside AP Top 25

Posted Sep 9, 2019
Mack Brown didn't want to hear it in the locker room after North Carolina's 28-25 victory over Miami on Saturday night as the Tar Heels moved to 2-0. "I heard some, ‘Oh, Top 25’ in the dressing room," Brown said. "I said, ‘Don’t go there brother, you just barely won this game.’" At least some voters were willing to go there, as the Tar Heels received 48 points in the poll. (Heels Maven)
