Trimane Goddard's interception seals deal for Heels

Posted Sep 28, 2008
The ball hit Miami wide receiver Kayne Farquharson in the hands in the back of the end zone. In the stands above, the Hurricanes' student section started cheering what would've been the game-winning touchdown. Down below, North Carolina's players also started hugging each other -- Trimane Goddard had grabbed the football out of the air after Farquharson couldn't hang onto it on the game's final play, preserving the Tar Heels' 28-24 win over the Hurricanes on Saturday.
