Tar Heel Rally Falls Short vs. Georgia Tech

Posted Jan 17, 2010
Georgia Tech overcame everything--a blown 20-point lead, the ear-ringing screams of North Carolina's blue-clad crowd and a second-half scoring barrage from Will Graves--to prove it has plenty of fight to go with all that talent. Zachery Peacock made the go-ahead shot with 25.7 seconds left to rescue the 20th-ranked Yellow Jackets, who shook off that blown big lead and held off the 12th-ranked Tar Heels 73-71 on Saturday.
