How is that game not a top 25 game of 2013 on ESPN...

-Thursday night ESPN primetime
-Ebron Epic performance
-Blocked field goal for a touchdown. To turn the game around
- Miami overcoming injuries to Johnson and Dorsett
- Fourth-quarter comeback in bruising Style by Miami

It being ESPN, it probably needed more points to be scored. UNC had a bad record at the time too. Both of those are probably the biggest reasons. If UNC wins that game, it could have made the list maybe.
 
I haven't seen the list but two above average teams exchanging mistakes isn't exactly memorable unless your side ended up unlikely on top.

I attended the game. Very enjoyable game. I sensed we were in trouble all week given the focus North Carolina was applying to that game, with the Black Out Thursday and all that stuff. Then during warmups it was obvious they had comparable talent and more energy. Lots of impressive athletes on that team. Hardly Ebron alone. I was watching Kareem Martin all night after noticing how agile and explosive he was. We tend to kid ourselves that our talent level is decisively above programs like North Carolina. Even with Butch Davis gone it will continue to be similar.

Luckily North Carolina made just enough errors when they owned the tilt, particularly failing to score a touchdown when we were reeling on the possession that straddled late third quarter into early fourth. I was talking to several North Carolina fans and one of them kept emphasizing that their run defense would wear down if we continued to pound it. Coley figured it out just in time. I doubt Fisch would have.

Because we aren't in the SEC. **** near all the games were SEC.

I attended the game as well. My son's first college football game. My avatar is from that night.
