Passion runs deep in UNC-ECU rivalry

Posted Sep 29, 2011
This week’s football game for Carolina does not count in the ACC standings, but there will be passionate play on the field Saturday night in Greenville. The game, which kicks off at 8 p.m. at a sold-out Dowdy-Ficklen Stadium, is the kind of backyard brawl in which emotions flow at a peak. “Being that I’m from Kinston, it’s personal,” Quinton Coples said.
