Extra Points: Hump Day

Chazz Surratt was bathed in the late-afternoon glow in the west end of Kenan Stadium, looking into the Tar Pit of Kenan Stadium where just over a thousand socially distanced, mask-wearing Carolina students were in a state of delirium. Surratt had just ripped through the middle of the Wake Forest offensive line, dodged the running back trying to block him and pounded Deacon quarterback Sam Hartman to the ground on fourth down. The reality had just registered to the senior linebacker that the Tar Heels were actually going to win this football game against Wake Forest, improbable as that might have seemed down 21 points just a quarter and a half earlier.
