Tar Heels will take time off
Posted Dec 1, 2008
With eight wins secured in the regular-season for the first time since 1997, North Carolina will now take a break from football and wait to see if it is selected for bowl play. Coach Butch Davis was to have met yesterday with his team before the players begin preparation for first-semester final exams. Davis has no preference for a bowl game for his team, which defeated Duke 28-20 in Durham Saturday in the regular-season finale.
