Tar Heels still trying to finish close games

Posted Oct 22, 2012
North Carolina hasn't proven it can consistently win close games under Larry Fedora just yet. The Tar Heels are coming off a 33-30 loss at Duke in which they surrendered the go-ahead touchdown with 13 seconds left. They're 1-3 in games decided by five or fewer points heading into Saturday's game against rival N.C. State, which has won two straight with go-ahead scores in the final minute. (WRAL Sports Fan)
