Tar Heels paid price for mistakes against Noles

Posted Oct 24, 2009
The UNC players talked about how a win over the Seminoles could be a turning point in their season. The Tar Heels entered the game 0-2 in ACC play and had scored just 10 points in those contests, but they were coming off a bye and boasted the top defense in the conference. Instead, the Tar Heels allowed the Seminoles to rally from an 18-point, third quarter deficit and put up 438 yards of offense to escape Chapel Hill with a 30-27 victory. (Durham Herald-Sun)
