Miami game against North Carolina dripping with drama

Posted Sep 27, 2008
The ACC aspect cannot be overstated. This is the first of eight league games that will determine if the Hurricanes can make it to their first ACC title game. Miami is in the Coastal Division, which is wide open for a program to step up and dominate. ''We want to win the ACC championship, and this is the first step,'' UM cornerback Bruce Johnson said. "We're not letting up for nobody. We're coming full-force.'' (Miami Herald)
