It was a warm November day in Tallahassee for the Tar Heels game against Florida State, with temperatures in the mid 80’s for most of the game. Ultimately, though, it was the ‘Noles that got burned by a white hot Omarion Hampton.
Hampton rushed for 32 times for 172 yards and a whopping four touchdowns to lead Carolina to a 35-11 road win. He also chipped in three catches for 93 yards and a receiving touchdown that put the game away. The offense fed Hampton early and often before sitting him out the last half of the 4th quarter with the game well in hand.
