Go Tar Heels

Well, too much from yesterday to even digest yet...and nothing there that I have any interesting thoughts about anyway.

So one's thoughts naturally turn to the Duke game tonight. Alas, according to the DTH, Ty Lawson showed up on crutches this morning after his ankle injury in the Florida State game. Lawson is, of course, the most important player on the team. Without him at the point, Carolina is just about mediocre. Bobby Frasor is out for the season with a torn ACL. That leaves Quentin Thomas, our third-string point guard. Now, we all love Q, and he could very well rise to the occasion. But without Lawson, we're big, big underdogs.

Now, I don't care all that much about the Duke game. The all-time series stands at 127-96 and, despite Duke's huge string of victories during our post-Dean coaching woes, we traditionally beat 'em like a rented mule with almost monotonous regularity. But I do care about scoring the #1 seed in the East regional, and losing this game will make that fairly tough.

Anyway, here's hoping for a fun game.

And, of course: Go Tar Heels!
