Butch Davis Beats Former Team As Heels Top Canes, 28-24

MIAMI -- Cameron Sexton threw a 14-yard touchdown pass to Brooks Foster with 46 seconds left, Trimane Goddard had two interceptions in the final minutes, and North Carolina rallied from an early... 14-point deficit to beat Miami 28-24 on Saturday. After struggling in the first three quarters in place of injured starter T.J. Yates, UNC backup QB Cameron Sexton came up big to rally the Tar Heels in the fourth quarter against Miami. Sexton -- playing because North Carolina starter T.J. Yates will miss six weeks with a broken left ankle -- relieved starter Mike Paulus early and completed 11 of 19 passes for 242 yards, including two fourth-quarter scores. He found Hakeem Nicks with a 74-yard pass with 9 minutes remaining, then coolly found Foster in the right corner of the end zone in the final minute to give North Carolina (3-1, 1-1 Atlantic Coast Conference) its first lead of the day. Miami had one more chance, getting the ball at its own 31. Robert Marve found Kayne Farquharson for a 29-yard gain that took the Hurricanes to the North Carolina 20 with 15 seconds remaining. Marve nearly hooked up with Farquharson again on the final play of the game, but Goddard's second pick of the quarter sealed the Tar Heels' win. Farquharson had his hands on the ball in the end zone, yet Goddard was the one who wound up with possession.more>>
