North Carolina 7, No. 23 Virginia 5
Posted Oct 23, 2005
North Carolina's players swore they were better than how they played in a humiliating loss at Louisville two weeks ago. They certainly proved it Saturday. Ronnie McGill ran for 118 yards while Cedrick Holt had a key interception late to cap a stellar defensive effort to help the Tar Heels hold off No. 23 Virginia 7-5.
