North Carolina: 63, Appalachian State: 61.
Yes, this was a football game. College football, a normal sport.
North Carolina appeared to take control of the football game to the point where swaths of Appalachian State fans left the stadium at the end of the third quarter. At the time, the Tar Heels led 41–21 in a game that Mountaineers fans had circled for quite some time.
It was a disappointing third quarter showing for App State, where UNC scored all 13 points to take a commanding three score lead.
It was over…until it wasn’t.
