South Florida intercepts Tar Heels' hopes of win over ranked opponent

Posted Sep 23, 2007

As quarterback T.J. Yates piled up school-record statistics through his first three games, one couldn't help but wonder where North Carolina's football team would be without its passing game. The answers came Saturday: Raymond James Stadium and out of contention. No. 23 South Florida intercepted Yates four times and held UNC to a season-low 164 total yards, defeating the Tar Heels 37-10 in front of a crowd of 37,693. (Durham Herald-Sun)
