FIRE US UP LT!
UNC football legend and Pro Football Hall of Famer Lawrence Taylor made a special appearance on ESPN's College GameDay . After the crew, who stationed in Chapel Hill ahead of the big-time matchup between the UNC basketball program and rival Duke, called Taylor onto the set to discuss tonight's game.
Taylor had quite the statement to express how he feels about this upcoming contest:

Yes, you heard that right:
"I'm looking for Carolina to kick some a**."
Aren't we all!
As expected, the crowd went absolutely nuts following LT's statement. While ESPN probably wasn't thrilled with Taylor's choice of words, it certainly added an edge to the broadcast, especially after Bill Belichick's appearance (one that was pretty much a boring one).
Lawrence Taylor got the job done with one simple line. He got the fan base riled up even more than they already are ahead of the upcoming rivalry meeting between Duke and North Carolina.
