Crazy ending provides fitting end to UNC’s chaotic season

Posted Dec 31, 2010
The Tar Heels did what they’ve done since the opening day of practice in the face of an NCAA investigation, a rash of suspensions, an injury epidemic and an 0-2 start. They made the best of a bad situation. This time they it did by extending the game on a 39-yard field goal by Wilmington’s Casey Barth, then winning it on another, less dramatic kick two possessions later for a most improbable 30-27 double-overtime victory against the stunned Volunteers.
