Butch Davis: Doesn't matter who opponent is, it's about how you play

The UNC football team takes on FCS opponent William & Mary on Saturday. The non-conference match-up gives the Tar Heels an opportunity to improve to 5-3 on the season with a homecoming win, but head coach Butch Davis said Monday the Heels will have to come prepared. "If you don’t respect your opponent, it’s the biggest trap in America," said Davis. (WRAL Sports Fan)
