Batten: Kelvin's Amazing Day

Posted Sep 29, 2011
Even though he was just a freshman at Appalachian State, Everett Withers heard about what happened in Chapel Hill on September 12, 1981. "I certainly remember hearing about the six-touchdown day,'' UNC's head football coach said this week. Thirty years have passed, but the performance at Kenan Stadium that day by Kelvin Bryant still holds a sacred place in the Tar Heel record books and in the minds of UNC faithful.
