Fifth Quarter: ACC record book gets an extreme offensive makeover

Posted Nov 18, 2012
Five Positives: A week after surrendering 68 points in a home loss to Georgia Tech, North Carolina went to Virginia – a place that hasn’t been kind to it in the past – and won impressively, 37-13. Not only did the Tar Heels’ defense rally to give up 55 points fewer on Thursday, it also scored a TD on Tre Boston’s 36-yard interception return. (Wilmington Star News)
