UNC tops Duke 28-20 behind Yates' 3 TDs
Posted Nov 30, 2008
T.J. Yates finally won again as a starter, thanks to the defensive back who has become North Carolina's top finisher. Yates was nearly perfect in throwing three touchdown passes, but the Tar Heels' 28-20 victory over Duke on Saturday night wasn't sealed until Trimane Goddard's interception in the closing seconds. Shaun Draughn rushed for 110 yards and a touchdown and caught another score from Yates.
