Posted Nov 17, 2009
Four weeks ago, after blowing an 18-point third quarter lead to fall Florida State, it looked like North Carolina's postseason hopes were in jeopardy. The Tar Heels were sitting at 4-3, with all three losses to ACC teams, and needed to win at least three of their remaining five games against a tough conference schedule to become bowl eligible. But three straight victories later, the Tar Heels have turned their season around.
