Maryland knocks off No. 17 North Carolina 17-15

Posted Nov 16, 2008
Playing on a wet field, facing a tough North Carolina defense and starting 82 yards from the end zone, Maryland desperately needed a score to keep alive its run of success against ranked teams. Chris Turner made it happen, engineering a dramatic 19-play drive that provided the Terrapins with a 17-15 victory over the No. 17 Tar Heels on Saturday. Obi Egekeze kicked a 26-yard field goal with 1:42 left to cap a 73-yard march that lasted nearly 9 minutes. (Winston-Salem Journal)
