Lucas: Too Poised for Pressure
Posted Jan 26, 2006
Boston College is, as Wes Miller said, a poised, veteran group. Some have the luxury of playing their fourth year of games together. Most on the Carolina roster aren't in their fourth month. "That's what people are going to say," Bobby Frasor acknowledged. "They're going to say experience made the difference. But we just didn't make the defensive plays to win the game." The last time these two teams met, Boston College won with brute force, hacking Carolina out of the 1994 NCAA Tournament. This time, they did it with poise.
