Buck: Between the Lines

Posted Dec 28, 2008
When the 2008 Meineke Car Care Bowl is recalled, two things will be remembered: UNC lost to West Virginia (31-30), but Tar Heel wide receiver Hakeem Nicks was spectacular. He truly was spectacular. His stat line tells only half the tale – eight catches, 217 yards, and three touchdowns. Each catch was memorable, particularly a catch worthy of a magician’s sleight-of-hand - a behind-the-back catch that sparked amazed reactions even on press row. (Inside Carolina)
