It looked as if North Carolina quarterback Sam Howell was trying just to throw the football out of bounds to avoid a Aaron Parker Jersey late sack.With 37 seconds left in the game, facing a 2nd-and-7 at the Virginia Tech 40-yard line, Howell heaved the ball to his right as he was spun toward the ground. The ball didn't reach the sideline. And it didn't hit UNC hands. Instead, itsailed right into the arms of Hokies defensive back Chamarri Conner, who bobbled it three times as he was going to the groundand Donte Jackson Jersey then a fourth time after he hit the turf.The ruling on the field was an interception, with UNC already trailing by a score,and the call stood upon review.

Howell, , didn't have his A-game and neither did his offensive line. He finished Friday having completed just 17 of 32 pa ses for 208 yards, with one touchdown and three interceptions.
