No. 17 North Carolina Makes ACC, FBS History in Overwhelming Win over No. 10 Miami

No. 17 North Carolina made program, ACC and NCAA FBS history in its overwhelming 62-26 win over No. 10 Miami.

"They are definitely trying to send a message not only to Miami but to the nation, to recruits," ESPN's Kirk Herbstreit said on UNC's fourth quarter performance while announcing the game. "I am still just in awe of this UNC running game and what they have done vs. Miami."

Quarterback Sam Howell became the first ACC player to record a pass, rush and receiving touchdown in the same game since UNC's own Marquise Williams in 2014.

Meanwhile, running back duo Javonte Williams and Michael Carter rushed for a combined 544 yards, setting an NCAA FBS record for most yards gained by two players on the same team.
