I'm not going to sit here and tell you I'm not disappointed.  I am.  I would have loved to have won the football game today.  But we didn't.  We played well but ran into a team that was one game out of the BCS.  For me to be writing about having gone to a bowl game at this point is remarkable, considering how intimidating the schedule was and the ups and downs of the season.  We have seen a team mature before our very eyes.  I'm also not saying that 6-6 is good enough every year.  But it's a start.  As the team wins games, expectations are raised, and of course we're disappointed with a bowl loss.  But the Tar Heels were the only team in the state of North Carolina to get that bonus game, to get the extra practice, and to get the fans another month of anticipation.  Baby steps, people, and they're going in the right direction.
I'll have more time to post my thoughts once I get some perspective, but I'm just exhausted right now. 

If you got a CD from me today, thanks for checking out the site.  I hope you enjoy it.
