Contrary to popular belief, the start of basketball season does not mean the football season is over. The Tar Heels come back to Kenan Stadium on Saturday night to host Wake Forest in their second of three Big Four games this season, and they do so having throttled their last two opponents on the road.
When last the Tar Heels were in Kenan, it was over a month ago and fans were picking their jaws off the ground as they watched Georgia Tech running back Jamal Haynes run the ball right up the middle for a 68-yard go-ahead score with less than a minute left.
