On a Roll: Baker hopes to carry Tar Heels

Posted Nov 18, 2005

Matt Baker has been sharp as North Carolina's quarterback the past two weeks, with his productivity on the upswing . It's some hot streak he's on as he heads into his last home game on Saturday against Duke. Baker's run began after the offense's most trying time of the season, a stretch of three games that resulted in very few points, very little yardage and two losses. And it began after a dinner meeting at Coach John Bunting's home. (Winston-Salem Journal)
