A pair of Connors will decide matchup

Posted Oct 19, 2005

Few kickers in the nation have struggled recently as much as UNC kicker Connor Barth, who has missed six of his nine tries this season — including an unfathomable shank of a 24-yard attempt against Utah. If the game goes down to the wire, three points on either side just might make the difference. Barth shaved his goatee last weekend, and the Tar Heels will have to hope that a smooth chin makes for smooth kicks. (Daily Tar Heel)
