Buck: Between the Lines

Posted Oct 19, 2008
The Charlottesville Curse lives on, at least until 2010. UNC held a slim and uncomfortable lead for 57 minutes, but the Cavaliers made adjustments during the course of the game which negated that initial advantage. Perhaps most telling, the Tar Heels lost their aggressive edge when they needed it the most, down the stretch. The result was a 16-13 overtime loss in Charlottesville that will linger on in memory, like so many of its predecessors. (Inside Carolina)
