Tar Heels happy to be going bowling
Posted Dec 11, 2009
College football's bowls season won't provide exactly what UNC wants, but no one in the program will admit to being disappointed at what will be available. The Tar Heels will play in Charlotte's Meineke Car Care Bowl for the second consecutive season. All the sights and bowl festivities will be familiar, but defensive tackle Marvin Austin said that playing again in the home of the Carolina Panthers beats the alternative the Tar Heels could have had.
