 The first play of the half was a short run by Linton, and after two incomplete passes by Keldorf, the Tar Heels prepared to punt.Rather than kick, however, North Carolina faked a punt and had punter Brian Schmitz pass the ball to linebacker Brian Simmons, who normally played defense.Simmons gained 28 yards and a first down on the play, which allowed the Tar Heels to continue their drive.
