Saw this about the '93 Peach Bowl vs North Carolina:

"The '92 season ought have built on Jackie Sherrill's exciting debut year but loss of Sleepy Robinson in the first month meant State could only challenge for and not win the SEC West in the first year of the BCS system. Then a frigid Egg Bowl loss took much of the fun of a trip to Atlanta. In another preview, they also led 14-0 and would have won it had not two, two! Greg Plump-to-Olando Truitt touchdowns been called back in the second quarter. The Tarheels regrouped and took a fourth-quarter lead on a pick-six. And someday, I'll go on-record with the true tale of what really happened in the team hotel on New Year's Eve."

Any clue to what he's alluding to here at the end?

I remember Truitt skipping into the end zone. Back then they would take the TD away and mark off 15 yards. Brutal. I think we were the only SEC team to lose a bowl game that year.
