I've been looking for a reason to go to cable instead of satellite too. That sucks about Draughn. Just when it seems that part of the offense is coming together we lose a key player again. It'll be interesting to see what Shoop does to fill the hole. Nope, I didn’t know that. I’ve been looking for a reason to go to cable instead of satellite too.

We do have a good record against Miami and you have to think that this game always holds a little something extra for Davis. Hopefully that will translate into a win for the Heels. Having just become a subscriber to digital cable I found all the UNC games with Woody free via TWC. If I had known about this feature I would have converted some time ago but the only website worse than tarheelblue is the Time Warner website. I was watching the VT game last night as I missed some of the first half and it was interesting to see the momentum change in the first half. Does anyone know if they do the same for the basketball games via TWC? I would tend to agree on Elzy, using him in the backfield would certainly add some depth and help us out versus Miami.

Devon Ramsey must be a better blocker but to my knowledge he has not carried the ball at all. I do know Elzy and Rome are decent pass catchers. I also think that putting Elzy and Houston in the backfield at the same time would be effective and punishing.

I think he doesn't have Draughn's quickness, but he's also like Houston in being a punishing runner that can help wear down the defense; utilizing White and Elzy can be a good complement to Houston. I think Miami is beatable. No doubt they will stack the box with eight and nine guys to make Yates beat them with his arm. If Yates can make some throws early on and UNC can utilize Houston/White/Elzy to make the running game effective, then the Heels have a chance. HP,

Certainly his absence makes the Heels even less potent and more predictable. I have been a fan of Elzy and think he is under utilized. Womble or Blue would have been interesting, but I do think we'll have to get in a time warp and see Johnny White, Greg Little and Anthony Elzy as the tailbacks when Houston isn't in the game. The Heels certainly can't afford another injury at that position. Maybe good TJ will emerge Saturday? Daggonit!
