It was a good night for basketball at the football game

The highlight (by far) of last night's UNC-Wisconsin football game in Kenan Stadium was the halftime presentation of championship rings to the men's basketball team.

The ceremony was introduced by a video displayed on the giant screen at the fieldhouse end of the field.

Even the hundreds of Wisconsin fans occupying the first 20 or so rows of section 102 right in front of me applauded. That was very generous of them considering the Badger basketball team was beaten by the Heels on their route to the title. I guess the Wisconsin folks are more into football, and they figured they were going to win this one.

This football schedule promises a few more losses for the Heels, but nothing can take away the memories of a great basketball season.
