Inside The Game: Tar Heels Find Way to Beat Demon Deacons
CHAPEL HILL – It wasn’t North Carolina’s prettiest performance of the season, but the Tar Heels did manage to pull out a 31-24 victory over Wake Forest on Saturday night at Kenan Stadium.
Not as dominant as the first two wins in what is now a three-game win streak, the Tar Heels went through an ugly stretch offensively, had 10 penalties, and was in position needing to secure an onside kick with 1:15 left to salt away the victory even though at times it appeared they were about to pull away.
A win is a win, and the Heels are now bowl eligible for the sixth consecutive season with two games remaining.
UNC improved to 6-4 overall and 3-3 in the ACC while the Demon Deacons dropped to 4-6 and 2-4.
