Tar Heels get complete effort against BC

Posted Nov 6, 2005

Like an old-school baseball fan in today's bullpen-happy world, John Bunting had been calling for it all season. More than anything, he wanted to see a complete game. On Saturday afternoon, when it mattered most, his North Carolina football team delivered. UNC moved the ball on offense, buckled down on defense and started and finished the game with key plays on special teams as it defeated No. 19 Boston College 16-14 on homecoming at Kenan Stadium.
