I will go out on a limb and say that Carolina will surprise Miami on October 30th. Yep. If I'm wrong, so what. But if they win, I look like a genius. I don't think Berlin has it together, and our DEs are getting after the quarterbacks more and more each week.

It was a beautiful October night in Kenan Stadium.  It was supposed to be just another game in #2 Miami's road to national title contention once again. They were 6-0.  We were 3-4. They were Miami. We were Carolina. This was football.

It was supposed to be a cakewalk for Miami. The Heels had other plans.

Darian Durant to Mike Mason. Chad Scott. Scott Brumett. Chad Scott again.
The Heels were up 21-14 at halftime. They were knocking on the door right before the first half ended before an ill-advised Durant pass was intercepted. Jesse Holley chased down the defender and saved what would have been a touchdown if not for a Miami flag.

28-21 Heels.  You knew Miami was going to score. Again, they were Miami.

Too much time for Darian to get freshman Connor Barth in range.  42 yards.  Golden. Carolina gets a huge win toward bowl eligibility.

The biggest win in Carolina football history. Buy the DVDListen to the remix. Appreciate it, because the first one is the sweetest.

By the way, I called the win a month prior to the game.  And I called the score an hour prior to the game. "It's going to be 31 to 28," I told Frank and Brett.  Honest.
