Cameron Sexton scored on a leaping 4-yard keeper to start the fourth quarter, Quan Sturdivant returned an interception for a touchdown and No. 22 North Carolina rallied
to beat Notre Dame 29-24 on Saturday.
Ryan Houston scored on a short run for the Tar Heels (5-1), who
are off to their best start since winning the first eight games of
the 1997 season. Hakeem Nicks added nine catches for 141 yards and
freshman walk-on Casey Barth kicked three field goals, helping
North Carolina rally from an 11-point first-half deficit and beat
the Fighting Irish for just the second time in 18 meetings.
