Tar Heels would like to kick it in gear vs. Miami

Posted Oct 6, 2007

Connor Barth’s greatest moment as a North Carolina kicker probably came as a freshman. So this afternoon’s game against Miami comes full circle for the senior. This is the first meeting between the teams in Chapel Hill since Barth’s 42-yard kick as time expired lifted the Tar Heels to that 31-28 victory against then-No. 5 Miami. It’s the only time in the UNC's history that the Tar Heels defeated a team ranked in the top five. (Burlington Times News)
