Heels say they won't look ahead

Posted Nov 16, 2005

Quarterback Matt Baker and defensive tackle Chase Page of the Tar Heels said they have no doubts that both games can be won. Baker, though, doesn't want his team straying from the strict preparation policy that it has followed all season. "It's Duke first, and that's all we're concerned about," Baker said. "I addressed the team (Monday) and I said, 'I don't want to hear anyone say a word about Virginia Tech." (Winston-Salem Journal)
