Quick Thoughts on UNC football ahead of a showdown with Louisville

UNC handled UConn last Saturday. The defense flipped its usual script, surrendering an abnormally high number of explosive plays (nine) but also generating an abnormally high level of havoc: eight QB hurries, three sacks, four tackles for loss, two interceptions (one returned for a touchdown), and a fumble recovery (with an assist from the officials). UNC’s offense, in its last six drives, produced five touchdowns and a single missed FG on a wet field. UNC simply made more plays than UConn on both sides of the ball in a comfortable win.

Duke Foundation leader says rural NC needs more hospitals - Today in Triangle History

A daily look at some of The News & Observer’s headlines on Nov. 13 in past years. On this day in 1926 , The News & Observer published a story about the Duke Foundation chair advocating for having money collected by churches go not toward building new church buildings but building a hospital in Durham County. W.S. Rankin spoke at Trinity Methodist Church in Durham, sharing his concerns that the church was “becoming so absorbed in the formalities” that it was not creating resources to help physically ailing people. Rankin shared stories about visiting poor people on the county’s outskirts who couldn’t afford medical diagnoses and didn’t live near hospitals. He said although North Carolina churches had been building hospitals, there needed to be more in other regions. “They have built them in Winston-Salem, Charlotte, and other places where half of the beds are vacant the year round, while in other places the suffering continues without relief.” Charlotte Speedway manager considers yearly races Also in 1926, Charlotte Speedway manager C.W. Roberts announced that the facility was considering hosting events just once a year. A race held the day before had 7,500 attendees, numbers much smaller than the usual turnout. Roberts

Georgia not approaching UNC game in awe of blue blood program

It’s college basketball’s bluest of blue bloods against a program whose leading scorer is named Blue. Georgia and Blue Cain visit UNC Friday night for a nationally televised game on ESPN2 at the Dean Dome in the first matchup between the Bulldogs and Tar Heels in 28 years. Cain’s father played golf at North Carolina's arch-rival, Duke, and named his son for the Blue Devils. North Carolina has won six NCAA championships and played in 21 Final Fours--more than any other program--but is unranked under first-year coach Michael Malone in this matchup of 3-0 teams. Georgia , a program who plays in the shadow of its top tier football program, is seeking a third straight NCAA Tournament trip under coach Mike White. It doesn’t plan to be intimidated by the all banners hanging in the rafters in its first road game of the season. “They put their jersey on like we do,” Georgia senior guard Smurf Millender said. “They bleed how we bleed. It’s not nothing that we’re not prepared for that Coach White and the other coaches haven’t prepared us for since June.” Georgia is 5-13 all-time against the Tar Heels, but had perhaps the biggest win in program
