God bless whoever goes to the trouble of converting these old home videos to a digital format. Very cool way to share a great memory with college football fans of all ages. Thanks for the link, @WoadBlue .

I was on a Boy Scout hike that day and I had my old 9-volt transistor radio at my ear the whole time. That was an arduous game!

If Rod Elkins could have played the entire game, if Kelvin Bryant had been 100% and if Carolina didn't have to finish with the3rd string center, who knows what the outcome could have been.

Thanks for posting.

Great post OP, thanks.

Tonight will NOT come down to a missed FG.
Tar Heels 45, Clemson 24.
The damn media criticize our schedule, what bout the clemson tigers??
DEFENSE !! + AIR MARQUISE = ACC CHAMPIONSHIP.

I was at that game- was 10 years old. My dad had a friend with a 4 person prop plane and we flew up from Charleston to Clemson for the game.

I remember the plane ride more than the game.

Damn- I hadn't thought about that for years.

All true. That was the year I began damning astro turf all the time. The GT turf ruined that season. If not for that carpet of injuries, we might have been Clemson. And that would have changed UNC football for the better forever.

I may be confusing years from back then, but I think somebody got hurt, maybe re-injured, by Moo.
