UNC players have been talking about Pack since the summer

Posted Oct 25, 2012
“Last year, one of my best friends, Tydreke Powell, he cried because he was like, ‘I wanted to beat State before I left,’” Sylvester Williams said. UNC’s current crop of seniors has a final chance to avoid a similar fate Saturday when the Tar Heels (5-3, 2-2) host the Wolfpack (5-2, 2-1) at Kenan Stadium (WRAL, 12:30 p.m.).
