Lou Holtz impressed with UNC

Posted Oct 8, 2008
"North Carolina has really impressed me this year," said Lou Holtz, who now works as an ESPN analyst. "I think Butch Davis has done an excellent job. They're playing very physical. Despite losing their quarterback, to lose T.J. Yates (hurt), but they have (Cameron) Sexton playing so well." Holtz said the current [Notre Dame] team is good, but not great. That won't stop UNC from considering this a marquee win if it manages to defeat the Irish. (Raleigh News & Observer)
