Heels riding a wave

With an offensive line that's finally getting healthy, the Tar Heels have regrouped to play their best football of the season. Headed to Boston College for a road game this Saturday, followed by a Nov. 28 regular-season finale against N.C. State, UNC wants to finish strong. "There's always a chance to go out there and win more and more, just to get a better bowl," UNC tight end Zack Pianalto said. "I think that keeps guys hungry." (Raleigh News & Observer)
