These games are always close. Save one or two moments in the rivalry’s past 30 years, Duke and North Carolina have always played nail-biter, physical games separated by a few points here and there. With how 2020 has gone for the Tar Heels, many fans and pundits thought Saturday’s game would fit that mold. Sam Howell, Javonte Williams and the rest of the Tar Heel offense thought otherwise. Jason Staples, Buck Sanders and Tommy Ashley break it all down in InsideCarolina.com’s Day After Podcast. To...

Greg Barnes and Ross Martin join host Tommy Ashley to break down this week’s press action on the InsideCarolina.com On the Beat Podcast. To learn more about liste...

Carolina’s trip to Virginia ended as so many others have in the past. Mack Brown’s squad went to Charlottesville favored and expected to run the score up on a Virginia defense unable to defend down the field. But as has been the case save for a couple times in the past 30 plus years, the Wahoos found a way to send the Heels home with a loss, and like so many times in the past, the Heels pitched in just enough mistakes to seal the deal. Jason Staples, Buck Sanders and host Tommy Ashley break it a...

Last week, Florida State was the first team to punch Mack Brown’s team in the face out of the gate and the Wolfpack has assumed the mantra that they are the most physical team in this state. So will the Heels match that intensity on Saturday? Jason Staples...
