UNC takes advantage of opportunities in victory over Virginia
Posted Sep 18, 2011
Virginia found a way to win on nearly every stat-sheet category Saturday, and yet still keep victory at arm's length for most of the day. Instead it was North Carolina — which racked up fewer yards, first downs, minutes of possession and third-down conversions — that found a way to win 28-17 by taking advantage of scoring opportunities. "We should have won that game," U.Va. quarterback Michael Rocco said.
