Surging North Carolina plays host to Miami

Posted Oct 14, 2011
North Carolina is one win away from once again qualifying for a bowl. Cornerback Jabari Price is looking for much more than that. The surprising Tar Heels can clinch bowl eligibility for the fourth straight season by beating Miami on Saturday in a Coastal Division matchup. A win would give North Carolina its best start since the 1997 team also opened 6-1 - and keep the Tar Heels in contention in the Coastal. (Miami Herald)
