Bowl bid alone won't satisfy Tar Heels

Posted Oct 28, 2008
North Carolina senior linebacker Mark Paschal was a redshirt freshman the last time the Tar Heels secured a spot in a bowl. With his team's 45-24 victory against Boston College on Saturday, Paschal is virtually assured of returning to the postseason again this season. In the wake of the accomplishment, Paschal and the Tar Heels (6-2 overall, 2-2 Atlantic Coast Conference) showed little in the way of satisfaction. (Burlington Times News)
