Inspired Heels Fall Short

Posted Oct 29, 2006

In its best effort of the season, North Carolina came up three yards short being good enough. Two costly fourth quarter turnovers spared No. 24 Wake Forest from an inspired upset bid by the Tar Heels, as the Deacs won a thriller, 24-17. Senior wide receiver Jesse Holley said the team had an "added push to go out there and really win and really play hard for Coach [John] Bunting." (Inside Carolina)
