UNC Football: North Carolina helmet stickers vs Miami
Tony Grimes
Tony Grimes may have had his first “signature moment” as a member of the UNC football program.
Miami was gaining some momentum, as they were able to put together a few scoring drives to begin the second half. After a Tar Heel missed field goal, it appeared as if Miami had an opening to make a comeback.
However, Grimes had different plans.
On the first play after the missed field goal, the Hurricanes attempted to throw the ball down field. Grimes made a fantastic play on the ball, as he was able to rip it out of the receiver’s hands for his first career interception.
Yes, the Tar Heels had a pretty big lead at the time, but the above play served as a huge momentum shift back in favor of the Tar Heels. The offense was able to add more points to the board on the ensuing drive, and it was a play that just made the game finally seem like it was out of reach.
Let’s not forget: Grimes is still only supposed to be a senior in high school! The five-star recruit re-classified to join the Tar Heels early, and he’s definitely seen his fair share of rookie struggles.
However, Mack Brown and his team are hopeful that this is a good sign of things to come for the very talented cornerback.
Well, this was definitely fun! As we wrap up the regular season, we remind you to check back with the Keeping It Heel team as we will reward helmet stickers for the UNC football team’s upcoming bowl game!
