Tar Heels soak in game-turning plays in upset of Miami

Posted Nov 15, 2009
After the fireworks, the handshakes and the alma mater, UNC defensive back Kendric Burney finally left the Kenan Stadium field and made his way to the locker room. But before disappearing into the tunnel underneath a legion of cheering fans, he stopped for a few more fist pumps and a moment to soak it in. After posting a memorable day in UNC’s 33-24 victory against Miami, Burney had authored an ACC victory worth savoring. (Burlington Times News)
