Tar Heels’ surprising win just another typical result in the ACC
Posted Oct 31, 2009
If there’s anything we’ve learned from watching ACC football, it’s that just when we think we’ve finally got it all figured out, something crazy happens to remind us that we really don’t have a clue. Raise your hand if you saw UNC’s upset of Virginia Tech in Blacksburg on Thursday coming. It’s results like that – and Florida State’s comeback victory against the Tar Heels the previous Thursday – that give even N.C. State fans reason to believe.
