First Person: Tommy Tackles T.A.
Posted Oct 25, 2012
Now as a graduate assistant, Tommy Davis has a chance to help the Tar Heels end a five-year losing streak to N.C. State. Is it just game nine on the schedule, or does Carolina get caught up in rivalry mode? "I think it's a little of both. There's a lot that rides on this game. You always want to beat your in-state rival because it gives you bragging rights throughout the state," he says.
