Seventy-two football players and several dozen assistant coaches, managers, support staff and miscellaneous personnel clustered around Larry Fedora in the Tar Heel locker room under the northwest stands at Carter-Finley Stadium early Saturday evening. Fedora is becoming quite the expert at this, these impromptu speeches to his team after another historical victory in an historical season.
In the books: an 11-1 regular season, never before since Carolina began playing football in 1888 that it’s logged that many victories (sans a bowl) and that many consecutively. Never an 8-0 ACC regular season.
