DeCock: A fitting end to an unpredictable season
Posted Dec 31, 2010
The game was over. Then it wasn’t. Then there was more. The Music City Bowl just couldn’t stop playing encores. You couldn’t ask for a more fitting end to an unpredictable North Carolina football season. The game that wouldn’t end just kept on going until the Tar Heels finally won, in a second overtime, 30-27 on a Casey Barth field goal after a Quan Sturdivant interception and Butch Davis and Derek Dooley shook hands … for the second time.
