Hakeem Nicks felt a career day coming against Boston College
Posted Oct 26, 2008
Hakeem Nicks, take a bow. When No. 23 Boston College entered Kenan Stadium on Saturday to play North Carolina, the Eagles knew they needed to stop No. 88 in blue. With standout receiver Brandon Tate sidelined for the year, Nicks became the key guy in the Tar Heels’ aerial attack. But the Eagles (5-2, 2-2 ACC) had no answer for “Ocho Ocho,” who caught three second-quarter touchdown passes and sent UNC (6-2, 2-2) to a 45-24 victory.
