Posted Jan 11, 2009
Third-ranked North Carolina got another reminder of the importance of focus when Boston College -- which gave the Tar Heels their first loss of the season Sunday -- fell to Harvard, at home, on Wednesday.

"On any given night, you can win or lose." Shouldn't the Tar Heels know that by now? (Raleigh News & Observer)
