Maye Leads Tar Heels To 47-45, Double-OT Win Over Duke

CHAPEL HILL, N.C.— Riding Omarion Hampton on the ground, Devontez Walker through the air and another poised performance by quarterback Drake Maye, North Carolina edged Duke, 47-45, in a double-overtime thriller on Saturday night at Kenan Stadium.

More than once in the early going, Carolina seemed ready to pull away, only to see Duke's Jordan Walters run for two fourth-quarter touchdowns as the Blue Devils flipped a 26-14 deficit into a 29-26 lead with 5:21 remaining in regulation.

Maye was the difference in the final moments of the fourth period and in overtime.
