CHAPEL HILL, N.C. (AP) Ronnie McGill ran for 118 yards to help North Carolina upset number-23 Virginia 7-to-5 in Chapel Hill.<br> <br> Cedrick Holt came up with a key interception late in the game to cap a stellar defensive effort.<br> <br> Matt Baker connected with Rikki Cook for the game&#39;s only touchdown in the first quarter, which ultimately proved to be all the Tar Heels would need to bounce back from a humiliating loss at Louisville two weeks ago.<br> <br> After allowing 69 points in that defeat, the Tar Heels held Virginia to just 199 total yards and allowed the Cavaliers&#39; offense just one field goal. That&#39;s a surprising result for a team that upset unbeaten Florida State a week ago.<br> <br> North Carolina bottled up mobile quarterback Marques Hagans, who threw for a career-best 306 yards and two T-D&#39;s in the 26-to-21 win over the Seminoles, sacking him twice and keeping him in the pocket. Hagans threw for 109 yards and ran for 26 before throwing the late interception to Holt.<br> <br> North Carolina improves to 3-and-3 overall and 2-and-1 in the Atlantic Coast Conference. Virginia drops to 4-and-3, with a 2-and-3 record in A-C-C play.<br> <br> (Copyright 2005 by The Associated Press. All Rights Reserved.)
