It was the game that would turn the season for two archrivals. On the night of October 9, the Tar Heels stopped T.A. McLendon on the goal line with seconds to go, causing a fumble and sealing the Carolina win.
On the play before, McLendon tried to burst through the middle of the UNC defensive line. A line judge on one end of the field had signaled touchdown, only to have the call overturned seconds later by the head referee and line judge on the other side of the field.
Head Referee Jim Knight ruled that McLendon's knee was down, and the official that made the original call could not see the knee from his vantage point.

N.C. State fans will forever disagree, but photos appeared to show that the ultimate call was right.
The Carolina students rushed the field, and the Heels had their first win over N.C. State since 2002, although it makes 9 wins out of the last 12.

State fans point to a video, but the one they cite is just  the second lunge McLendon makes after his knee touches down.

It's a shame the game will always be overshadowed, as it was a classic.  But a W is a W, and it was one of 6 that made the Heels bowl-eligible this season.  The Pack would drop 4 of the next 5 and finish 5-6, out of bowl contention.

Incoming freshman Tyler Hansbrough stopped by ESPN.Com to chat on what he's looking forward to next season.

Is Mick Mixon leaving the Tar Heel Sports Network? Apparently, he's been offered the play-by-play job with the Carolina Panthers.

Sources say Raymond is next to announce for the NBA.
