There was a duel going on. Virginia Tech and North Carolina battled up and down the field trading blows like prize fighters in the middle of the ring. Hokies entered the 2nd half with a four point lead, but without a starting Quarterback. Hendon Hooker who had been solid, with the exception of a mishandled off angle snap that gave Carolina a short field and a field goal after the Heels had opened with a scorcing TD drive.,
The Hokies recovered and then weird stuff started happening, First Willis’s 1st half ending touchdown pass was not repeated.
