Turner's Take: The Lessons of the Past

Posted Sep 29, 2016
The last time UNC football traveled to Florida State's Doak Campbell Stadium, they came away with a 37-35 win, a thriller that ended with back-to-back field goal attempts: the Tar Heels' Casey Barth hit from 22 yards with 55 seconds to play; Florida State's Dustin Hopkins missed from 40 yards with two seconds on the clock. It was UNC's only win in ten games in Tallahassee. (GoHeels.com)
