Such an incredibly wrong statement. UC travels far, far better than Pitt, Rutgers, and Syracuse but that did not seem to matter.

The Belk was OK last year. The huge snowstorm in Ohio kept many folks away. We drove down the morning of the game. The pre-game was nice, but nothing special. Obviously the BCS Bowls, but also the Liberty, were far more impressive. And it sure was cold sitting in the crowd that particular night. I hope for better weather this year.

It's just disappointing that UC's reward for a good season is to get to play a road game against UNC. The Panthers stadium will be filled with powder blue.

I didn't get to go last year because of work, so if it's Belk again, I'm fine with it. Nice stadium, Charlotte is a nice city and it's an doable drive. Will probably be a lot more fun for the players this year without the distraction of the coaching upheaval.

I'll be there.

For you country music fans, Blake Shelton will be performing during the Belk Bowl Fan Fest at 11:00am prior to a 3:20pm kickoff.

Blake Shelton...hmm. Mrs. Ragpicker may overrule me and we will be headed to Charlotte after all.

People really are undervaluing the talent BK inherited. team was loaded. still going from power to spread is a huge transition. that schedule was good. what that team accomplished was really impressive, but not because of a lack of talent

Never heard of him. Would he beat the halftime KC and the Sunshine Band performance at the Liberty Bowl?

Does he sing that awful hunny bee song?

Blake Shelton is also one of the main stars of the hit TV show the Voice....Jackie, i only meant that we must continue to show up in good numbers at bowl games, not that we have not done a great job in the past. We cannot afford any slip ups in any way. You can see UCF is the new HOT darling replacing Boise in the media...We must keep up on all fronts.

I'll be there. Easy drive, nice stadium, need to make sure UC fans can be heard in a sea of that ugly *** powder blue. Same as last time, I'll be pregaming at the downtown BBQ/Bourbon joint.

Yep, both Mrs. Ragpicker and my Mom have officially overruled me. Guess we are headed to the Belk. I like the afternoon kickoff. Let's just hope for better weather this year.

We were woefully unprepared last year. Sweatshirt and jeans was perfect for the afternoon tailgating. But by the second quarter on when the temperature dropped to 30 degrees our group was completely miserable.

I'm also looking forward to the afternoon kick. I have two little kids and I wasn't feeling like the best father in the world when the temp took a nosedive. Luckily my wife had them in eight layers, they slept through the crazy ending.

Hopefully more people are able to make it down since its a Saturday game.
