Chick-fil-A Bowl officials haven’t eliminated North Carolina from consideration for the game’s coveted ACC slot.
But bowl president Gary Stokan didn’t sound encouraging Tuesday as he talked about the Tar Heels’ prospects after their 41-10 loss last week to N.C. State.
“The Tar Heels certainly didn’t improve their chances with us with the loss to the Wolfpack on Saturday,” Stokan said.
Before consecutive losses the last two weeks to Maryland and the Wolfpack, North Carolina was high on the Chick-fil-A wish list. But now the Tar Heels need to win at Duke on Saturday to finish 8-4 overall and 4-4 in the ACC to have a slight chance at a Chick-fil-A Bowl bid.
Even then, their chances don’t sound good. Stokan said he is seeking the most competitive team possible to meet an SEC opponent in the Dec. 31 game in Atlanta.
He said bowl officials would be more inclined to pick a team that’s 5-3 in the ACC. Florida State and Georgia Tech are 5-3. The Boston College-Maryland winner also will be 5-3. Miami can get to 5-3 with a win Saturday at N.C. State, and Virginia Tech will be 5-3 if it defeats Virginia.
“Certainly we like teams that are ranked,” Stokan said. “We like teams that are playing their best football.”
The Chick-fil-A bid is highly sought because the bowl picks first from available ACC teams after the conference champion gets selected by the Orange Bowl.
North Carolina remains one of eight teams under consideration for the ACC’s slot in the Gator Bowl, which chooses after the Chick-fil-A.
Other bowls with ACC ties, in order of selection, are the Champs Sports, Music City, Meineke Car Care, Emerald, Humanitarian and EagleBank bowls.

Tue, 11/25/2008 - 21:56 — UNC1998The D.C. bowl is looking for NCSU. Worry about UM, not UNC. Don't Bonk. I'd like to see NCSU in a bowl. I'd like to see the schools in NC dominate the ACC. Since, NCSU supposedly has NC locked, why not take care of Miami also. UNC will go wherever an 8-4 records gets you. That will be their (and us fans) plight.

-Admitted, you have seen
Tue, 11/25/2008 - 21:47 — wolfpack426-Admitted, you have seen improvement in the last two seasons under Butch, with all of Bunting's talent. Let's look at Davis' "previous body of work." Run out of Miami and the NFL for not being able to manage games. Embarrassing losses to Va. Tech who they had beaten at 14-0 before allowing them to come back, Maryland, and UVA who got shutout by Duke 31-0, and oh yeah, might I mention when the mighty number 24 in the nation got blown out by a bunch of "inferior" players at NC State. Didn't you people give this man a raise after a 4-8 showing. How much will you have to pony up for him this year after he's doubled his wins? And 8 wins isn't for certain, Duke didn't get beat by Va. Tech very badly and they did shut out UVA. Apparently "looking past" NCSU is why you got punched in the nose at home on senior day so you may do it again.
-Secondly, look on ESPN.com, your recruiting class isn't that much better and if Butch recruits like he did at Miami, you're going to end up with a bunch of high talent primma donnas that Davis can't manage, just like at Miami and the NFL.
-Now, Coach O'Brien, his first two seasons at BC were losing, then he went to a Bowl Game every year after that. He's had to deal with injuries to key players and playing very young players and has managed to post impressive wins in the latter half of the season. His first year he had 5 wins,which I think was one more than Davis got in year one right? Now this season, he has at least not gotten any worse than last and at best posted one more win than last season, I'd call that success given the injuries and youth considered. Butchie has an abundance of talent and can barely use it. And need I mention Matt Ryan, ya'll remember who his coaches were right?
It's all good though Tar Goats, it's basketball season.

do some research
Tue, 11/25/2008 - 22:45 — gvillegatrrun out of Miami???? he left Miami on his own accord for Cleveland.
why do you guys not worry about beating Miami this weekend???
win or lose, UNC is going bowling.
lose and NCSU stays home, yet, again.
Heels
Tue, 11/25/2008 - 20:57 — gvillegatrneed to win against DUIke this weekend. there are no "ifs" "and" or "buts" about it. We're in a tail spin and thats a fact. All of a sudden this team cant produce an offense. I thought Yates was going to be the answer and I was wrong. It was clearly too soon for him to come back but he was needed. Sexton sure as hell isn't the answer. hes crapped the bed ever since UVa.
This team isnt used to being the hunted yet. but they better figure it out by saturday. they'll either whoop the crap out of DUIke or they'll lose. thats just my opinion.
unc has the second longest
Tue, 11/25/2008 - 19:44 — uncisoverratedunc has the second longest losing streak in the ACC, behind Duke
UNC will win at Dook and go
Tue, 11/25/2008 - 17:45 — jsp1267UNC will win at Dook and go to Tampa to play in the Champs Sports Bowl. A major step forward from 4-8 last year. Our strngth of schedule was comparable to other ACC team,s, but that's the excuse State fans use for UNC's success. Anyone see the big time commitments after the beat down? Close to a top ten class. Building depth so injuries doesnt ruin your season. TOB needs to step up or he will be gone. Self appointing best in the state works for now, but another 5-7 and sit at home season is not improvement, but I know its because of all the injuries right? Recruit better or all your going to have is what you got now, a bunch of opinions while your rival is bowling adn your not.
UNC Will Win @ Duke
Tue, 11/25/2008 - 20:26 — RegIsBestMy first comment to the UNC fan is to learn how to spell correctly, you're (not your) embarrassing the Char Wheels. Secondly, don't be a State hater, since your lost two back-to-back games, and one of them happened to be to NC State. I will add it was a sound defeat. Thirdly, TOB does speak with validity, when he said "State is the best team in the State (North Carolina). The record (4-0) does speak for itself. Lastly, I know if the shoe was on the other foot, "YOU" UNC fans would be bragging to everyone that you had beaten all the big teams in the state. Stop being a State hater. Go to whatever bowl game you're (not your) going to and enjoy it. YOU ARE going for the first time in a few years, and that is commendable.
UNC has lost two in a row,,
Tue, 11/25/2008 - 19:43 — uncisoverratedUNC has lost two in a row,, and NC State has won three in a row, including whipping the Tar Heel's anus, and you think Butch Davis is getting things turned around for the Tar Heels? That's like saying that George Bush has the economy going in the right direction,, are you mentally ill?
3-9 to 8-4 ??
Tue, 11/25/2008 - 19:59 — TarHeelFan05considering that Carolina was 3-9 John Bunting's last season the when Butch came Carolina then was 4-8 and now has a bowl a possiblity of going 8-4 a year later, he is deff getting things turned around. Losing to NC State doesnt break our season like it makes NC State's season if they beat UNC. so if your all about math and "streaks"... Carolina is now 5 wins better than they were at Butch Davis's arrival. In my and anyones book, thats getting a team turned around. Just because you dont know what your talking about doesnt make other people mentaly ill. Why would you say that anyways?
Inferior?
Tue, 11/25/2008 - 16:58 — riddickfieldWell... yes in a 41 - 10 kind of way State is clearly an inferior team. Butch is 0 - 2 superior against state. I know... I know... wait 'till next year. Carolina will be lucky to go to the muffler bowl with a win this weekend. With a loss... well... You guys like the color blue right? You may be seeing a whole lot of that in the near future.
hello riddick
Tue, 11/25/2008 - 20:48 — gvillegatrglad to see you posting here after NCSU strung a couple of victories together!
you are a bandwagon just like the rest of your fans. this place was a ghost town after about 5 weeks of college football (just like 850 and 620 am). now this place (and the radio stations) looks like JPG wrote something bad about ASU ... you guys just come out from underneath your rock and start posting and talking again.
well guess what, you are still at 5 wins needing 6. BOL to you and lets see whose posting next week if you lose!
Excuse me
Tue, 11/25/2008 - 21:20 — JPDOhioSome of us have been above the rock all year.

Tue, 11/25/2008 - 22:40 — gvillegatryou will always be the exception when I am getting upset with the NCSU fan base. you are always around. congrats to your team beating the snot out of mine.
No problem
Wed, 11/26/2008 - 15:24 — JPDOhioJust keeping you honest. And thanks.
I'll proudly say, JPDOhio has been here all season.
Tue, 11/25/2008 - 21:59 — UNC1998I look for his posts to find civility and reason among all of the NCSU posters. Please stay JPDOhio, we all need you.
Thanks
Wed, 11/26/2008 - 15:25 — JPDOhioAppreciate the kind words. And don't worry, I am not going anywhere.
Where are the Baby Blue Poor Looser???
Tue, 11/25/2008 - 16:39 — Z1234567Honestly, I would not invite UNC to any high profile Bowl. First of all, they are overrated football team and they are bunch of underachiever. Secondly, they show no good sportsmanship. I have not heard Butchie Davis Congratulate Tom O'Brien on NC. State victory or compliment on R. Wilson for his outstanding performance against his beloved team. He didn't even look into Tom O'Brien's face at mid-field after the game. The only thing he said on Sunday paper was "that Yates had mechanics breakdowns during the game and that it couldn't be fix during the game".excuses!..excuses!...excuses!...Show some "Class" Butchie......Your Ancestor John Bunting show more class than you , Butchie!! Should have take some notes from old John Bunting before he left.
No Class?
Tue, 11/25/2008 - 22:57 — psh0117When you come on a site complaining because the opposing coach didn't look into the other coaches eyes or didn't congratulate the other team on the win, so what. your team won the game, so who cares, find something else to complain about, Like your season. And for the record, UNC does have class, more so then state. State is the prime example of no class in the acc. You can't handle winning when you do, which is why when you do you act so obnoxious that it makes you sound stupid and when you're not winning you're nowhere to be found. That’s No class.
Bunting = class
Tue, 11/25/2008 - 20:42 — gvillegatrb/c he beat your asses mmore than he lost to you.
and I do appreciate you calling UNC under acheivers ... all that does is prove my point that NCSU is inferior to UNC. we can both feel the sting of this!
The question is which bowl, not if they get in one.
Tue, 11/25/2008 - 16:22 — UNC1998I know it's been only 3 days, but that game is over forever. Duke is next. UNC must face forward and be prepared to play in the next round of "opponent super bowl". I've said I thought 9-3 was possible. It's not. 8-4 is, and I'm looking to that. BTW, I heard the D.C. bowl might want NCSU. Don't bonk.
Hi Pathetic, I wouldn't say
Tue, 11/25/2008 - 15:20 — cmletchHi Pathetic,
I wouldn't say NCSU is inferior. They are an up and coming team and playing well late in the season with a much improved QB. I think the Heels record is better because they have played such a weak schedule overall. I think they will get better overtime but I don't think they are ready for a big time bowl yet.
Hi inferior, I would say
Tue, 11/25/2008 - 20:39 — gvillegatryour team is inferior to UNC's at every position except QB. you guys clearly came to play against UNC on saturday and UNC did not. I can only presume UNC thinks NCSU is a joke, b/c UNC looked like a joke on saturday ... and the egg yolk was all over our faces.
pathetic
Tue, 11/25/2008 - 13:53 — gvillegatrIf I were on a bowl committee, I wouldnt want them coming to my town.
I hope they are still embarassed for losing to an inferior team like NCSU.
