Great to see Carolina stick it to Duke for the 20th time in the last 21 games, including 8 straight wins. At 7 and 5 Carolina is bowl eligible, no small feat considering the turmoil off the off season and the firing of Butch Davis. Kudos to Everett Withers and seniors such as Dwight Jones for leading this year's squad.
Next year is already tantalizing, with Bryn Renner and Gio Bernard poised to lead the Heels to the promised land - 9 wins, including one over N.C. State!
I'd also bring coach Withers back next year.
Finally, while were talking leadership one of my favorites is T.J. Yates, who led Carolina to 8 wins last year despite numerous suspensions and disruptions. Today Yates played in his first NFL game and helped lead his Houston Texans to a 20-13 win. Yates took over for injured second-string quarterback Matt Leinert at the end of the first half, and completed 8 of 15 passes for 70 yards. Leinert may be out for the season so Yates is likely the de facto starter for the AFC South leading Texans.Next year is already tantalizing, with Bryn Renner and Gio Bernard poised to lead the Heels to the promised land - 9 wins, including one over N.C.
