North Carolina upsets No. 12 Miami 33-24

Posted Nov 15, 2009
Kendric Burney had just grabbed his third interception and returned it across midfield when he saw roommate Melvin Williams to his right near the sideline. Suddenly, the ball came loose and ended up with Williams, who sprinted the final 44 yards for a fourth-quarter touchdown for North Carolina. Was it a fumble? An illegal forward pitch? Either way, the replay-reviewed score stood and helped the Tar Heels beat No. 12 Miami 33-24 on Saturday (ACC Sports Journal)
