Brian Barbour on September 21st, 2007 |  Comments are closed Where: Raymond James Stadium, Tampa, FL When: Saturday, September 22nd, 12:00 PM TV: ESPN Records: UNC 1-2; USF 2-0 Rankings: USF #23 South Florida entered the polls following their upset of Auburn on the road. As it turns out, Auburn may not have been as good as advertised since they followed up that loss with [...] Continue reading UNC at South Florida And that is what someone in the Cleveland Cavaliers organization did to ex-Duke player Danny Ferry. When Ferry arrived at the new Cavaliers practice facility he found this painted on his office wall. That is awesome. The UNC compliance office has initiated an investigation into whether a secondary NCAA violation occurred during a recruiting visit with high school senior Ian Shumpert. According to the Charlotte Observer, Shumpert played pick-up basketball games with former Heels Sean May, Marvin Williams and Raymond Felton which might constitute the minor infraction. Shumpert also indicated to [...] Continue reading UNC Reviewing Recruit Visit for Possible Violation Brian Barbour on September 20th, 2007 | Comments are closed Thursday night games involving ACC teams throw me off a bit because that means I have to get my picks in before Thursday. Then again it is not like I am going to be watching the Miami-Texas A&M game tomorrow night from 9 to 11 PM considering the “Burn Notice” season finale will be on [...] Continue reading ACC Football Week #4: Preview Brian Barbour on September 19th, 2007 | Comments are closed Via The ACC: 2007-08 Blue Ribbon Pre-Season Ranking 1.

Yates and ECU’s Patrick Pinkney as two surprise QBs this season: Davis’ preseason concerns about UNC’s quarterback position have been answered by Yates, who enters Saturday’s game at South Florida ranked ninth nationally in passing efficiency. He’s already thrown nine touchdown passes in three games, putting him more than halfway [...] Continue reading How Good is Yates Relatively Speaking? I will never cease to be amazed at the kinds of things people think and write in a public forum, like this guy who wrote a Letter to the Editor in The Daily Tar Heel: TO THE EDITOR: In my 20 years of watching Carolina football, I’ve seen plenty of bad football played. I [...] Continue reading With Friends Like This Two comments on a pair of articles in the N&O. First from Robbi Pickeral’s UNC postgame clipboard: First, a last-second field goal by East Carolina. Then, a failed 2-point conversion against Virginia. UNC (1-2) has been used to losing over the past half-decade. But not like this. And you know what? I’ll take it. Yes [...] Continue reading This Will Suffice For Now A second look at some portions of the game on tape offered up a few more thoughts some of which may be a rehash of my earlier take on the game. The run defense was unbelievably bad and the pass defense was not much better. Forget the statistical nightmare this was with UVa coverting 11 [...] Continue reading More on UVA-UNC Brian Barbour on September 16th, 2007 | Comments are closed It is so easy being wrong…. Boston College 24 Georgia Tech 10 First of all let me just state that Boston College is the best team in the ACC. I erroneously backed Georgia Tech in my weekly picks believing their defense to be the supreme factor in the equation despite the issues on offense when [...] Continue reading ACC Football Week #3: Review Not much to say about this one. Unforced errors killed UNC with three drives stopped cold by two fumbles and an INT. Credit UVa’s Chris Long on the T.J. Yates INT he made a great play to snag the ball out of the air. The defense did a good job keeping UVa out of the [...] Continue reading Virginia 22 UNC 20 |
