The demons that always seem to present themselves when UNC plays Clemson were present Saturday night as Carolina dropped their game on the road in sloppy and frustrating fashion, 31-20.
It seemed like every glimmer of hope was met with a swift kick in the pants. Some of it was self-inflicted, like repeated false start penalties and two fumbles from Omarion Hampton, who hadn’t fumbled all year. There were some rather questionable calls that will get a fair amount of attention, but the bottom line is that Carolina refused to get out of their own way.
Drake Maye’s numbers were less than stellar with 209 yards and one touchdown.
