This week in North Carolina talk
The shows spent the week on North Carolina's bowl eligibility push and the upcoming Miami game. There's talk of the Tar Heels needing one more win to get there after losing to Syracuse in overtime, and Shutdown Fullcast made Miami at North Carolina their game of the week, expecting Belichick to neutralize North Carolina's top receiver. Cover 3 brought up the 2004 Halloween upset precedent and debated whether the Tar Heels can pull off a scare against number one Miami.
