Nathan Leacock’s Teammates Rally Around Him After Costly Late-Game Turnover

Posted Oct 19, 2025
With less than four minutes to play, UNC was one step away from a go-ahead touchdown. That was until a California defender knocked the ball out of Tar Heels receiver Nathan Leacock's arm, forcing a game-sealing turnover. "We can't blame anything on Nathan because it's a team sport, it doesn't come down to one player or one play." (TarHeel247)
