The engine stalled,
Velocity dropped.
Fans were appalled:
Football dreams stopped.

Then came a play
Like none before,
The kind they say
Belongs to lore.

A goal-line stand
Against hated State
Struck up the band,
Changed Tar Heel fate.

First Miami
Felt the Heels’ wrath.
Primed for OT,
Barth changed the math.

A loss to VaTech,
Close – it is true,
Still couldn’t wreck
The force of Blue.

Fueled by two wins
To close the year,
Revived pistons
Powered the gears.

More than just that,
The Heels looked good.
Backs to the mat,
They’d sawed some wood.

Win total, higher.
The gas tank, full.
Gone that flat tire,
Instead, Tire Bowl!
