Dooley Comment

Claiming that his boys give
him something to worry about
every week, Dooley says, "We
seem to get ahead every
Saturday and then let the other
teams come back and make it
close. I'm beginning to think
these players like that
nickname and don't want to do
anything to ruin their
reputation."

It is probably not stretching
the imagination to say that
there are several coaches
around the country who would
love to be saddled with
Dooley's cardiac woes.

Going into Saturday's
Kenan Stadium contest with
the Cavaliers the Tar Heels
have won thirteen straight ACC
games, boast a 6-1 record on
the year and hold down the
seventeenth and eighteenth
spots in the Top Twenty polls.
Their only loss was a
respectable 29-14 effort against
fourth-ranked Ohio State.
