"Outside this room I really don't care what they say or what they think," he said in his weekly press conference. "It really matters what we think in this room. I think we're a darn good football team. "

North Carolina's tough pass defense will be put to the test against Pittsburgh's offense, which features the conference's leading receiver.

"It's not about the adjustments and the speech and all that," North Carolina head coach Larry Fedora told reporters this week. "It is really just staying calm and being patient... and letting (the players) adjust to it. Our guys have played really well in the second half."
