Hardin: UNC's 1st football weekend in long time

Posted Sep 16, 2008
Butch Davis is 2-0 this year in Chapel Hill, a dangerous place to be judging from history. Hopes have been raised quickly, and expectations are suddenly rising. The stadium will be filled Saturday, and most everyone inside it will be expecting a Carolina win. Coming off the Thursday night 44-12 dismantling of Rutgers, it's suddenly football season in Carolina. Davis knows his team is close. (Greensboro News & Record)
