Posted Nov 30, 2008
A near-perfect T.J. Yates threw three touchdown passes, and Trimane Goddard intercepted a pass in the closing seconds to seal North Carolina's 28-20 victory over Duke on Saturday night. Shaun Draughn rushed for 110 yards and a touchdown and caught another score from Yates to help North Carolina (8-4, 4-4 Atlantic Coast Conference) snap a two-game losing streak and beat the Blue Devils (4-8, 1-7) for the 18th time in 19 years.
