Syracuse scored a touchdown on 4th and goal and then made good on a game-winning two-point conversion to stun UNC 31-30 at Kenan Stadium Saturday night. The final score was the first time the Orange had led all night.
Carolina led 10-0 early and 20-10 in the fourth quarter before Syracuse mounted its final comeback. The Orange had a chance to take the lead in regulation, but a missed extra point after a touchdown run late in the fourth quarter preserved a 23-23 tie. UNC had a chance to drive down the field and win the game late, but Billy Edwards took a sack on 4th down in Orange territory to turn the ball over on downs.
In overtime, UNC got the ball first and scored on an Edwards touchdown to Demon June. Syracuse’s ensuing possession saw the Orange convert a 3rd and 11 and then 4th and goal before the game-winning two-point try, which was upheld following replay review.
Saturday’s loss drops UNC to 4-3 overall and 2-2 in ACC play. The Tar Heels will be back in action when they host No. 1 Miami at Kenan Stadium next Saturday at 7:30 p.m.
