Heels end Duke's season with loss

Posted Nov 30, 2008
North Carolina won the Victory Bell by beating rival Duke 28-20 on Saturday. More importantly, it kept itself in the mix for one of the top ACC Bowls. Although UNC finishes 4-4 in conference play, the Chick-Fil-A, Gator or Champs Sports bowls — which get to pick first out of the ACC teams, after the winner of the ACC Championship game automatically advanced to the Orange — can still choose UNC ahead of league foe that finished 5-3.
