UNC football on the wrong side of history in loss to Duke

Posted Sep 29, 2024
It wouldn’t be another UNC football game unless a poor defensive performance was involved. The latest letdown came on Saturday at Duke, when North Carolina allowed their archrival to score 21 unanswered, second-half points en route to a 21-20 Duke victory. With Saturday’s comeback, Duke is now 2-72 when trailing by 20 or more points. (Tar Heels Wire)
