ESPN broadcaster Rece Davis on the 'real' Carolina

Posted Sep 17, 2024
If you ask College GameDay host Rece Davis who the real Carolina is, he’ll vouch for the Tar Heels. Davis was asked "has anyone lost to USC twice in 3 weeks?" "I'm an honest man. When I hear the word 'Carolina' I think of my friend Hubert Davis & the Tar Heels. I just do. I hear 'USC' and I think the other one. Now, the opportunity is for the crowd to change that."
