Cavs rally to extend streak on Heels

Posted Oct 19, 2008
North Carolina was two minutes away from ending its streak of losing in Charlottesville, Va. But the Tar Heels will have to wait another two years to take another crack at the streak — UNC has not won in Charlottesville since 1981. Virginia rallied to tie the game with 47 seconds left and then UNC coach Butch Davis chose to send the game to overtime. There, the Heels managed a field goal. Virginia's Cedric Peerman found the endzone with a 2-yard TD for the 16-13 win. (Raleigh News & Observer)
