No. 1 Clemson escapes after heartbreaking finish for UNC

Posted Sep 28, 2019
The fourth quarter has been magical for UNC all season. But, for the third straight game, the Tar Heels couldn’t come up with enough in the end. A 16-play, 75-yard drive set UNC up for a potential go-ahead two-point conversion attempt. Quarterback Sam Howell’s run around the right side came up short and No. 1 Clemson escaped with a 21–20 victory. (Triangle Sports Network)
