  "account": "CHAPEL HILL, N.C. (AP) — In a game marred by a brawl, Louisville secured a 16-14 victory over North Carolina through a late interception by Jabari Mack on Saturday. Mack, facing pressures after starter Billy Edwards Jr. left the game, snatched the fourth-down pass intended for UNC receiver Jordan Shipp with 58 seconds remaining. The ball ricocheted off Shipp, allowing Mack to return it 32 yards for the decisive play. Following the final play, players from both teams quickly turned hostile, engaging in shoving matches and physical altercations. The altercation culminated with a Louisville player inadvertently lifting a UNC player out of the end zone before security intervened and restored order. Despite the physical confrontation, the Cardinals maintained their position in the ACC standings, leading the only two-loss team in the conference. Louisville's defense dominated the game, recording only 302 total yards compared to UNC's 293 yards. Benjamin Hall, a standout for UNC, scored two rushing touchdowns, including a crucial 6-yard run with 3:43 left in the game that narrowed the gap to 16-14. The Cardinals' win keeps them in contention for an ACC championship spot as they finished the night with six victories in seven games.",
