A big win for a team that needed it

Posted Oct 3, 2010
ECU matched its 2009 point total against the Tar Heels, but UNC emerged with a 42-17 victory after two halves of football that were as different as night and day. In the 2009 post-game scene, UNC's Marvin Austin chided ECU players -- saying they could only wish they were wearing light blue instead of purple. With Austin suspended from the team indefinitely, the Tar Heels savored their victory in more muted tones. (Durham Herald-Sun)
