Tonight's Music City Bowl has been a heavy-hitting event, pitting two teams at the ends of their ropes. Helmet-to-helmet penalties, big hits, and brutal injuries -- aren't bowl games supposed to be fun? North Carolina Tar Heels DL Donte Paige-Moss didn't quite catch the worst of it, as Deunta Williams' leg injury will be hard to top.

A Tennessee player is also without helmet there, and you kind of wonder what would’ve happened if he’d been the one to crack heads with Paige-Moss.
The junior lineman rolled on the ground for a moment before being helped off the field, with blood appearing to trickle from his nose. He threw up a deuce on his way off the field while plugging up his bleeding face, had a seat, and eventually returned to the game. This year hasn’t gone right for Heels or Vols fans, but it’s pretty clear these players haven’t given up the fight.
