North Carolina kicker Nick Weiler pulled off an ultimate boss move after booting a 54-yard field goal to beat Florida State on Saturday.

UNC was down 35-34 after Florida State drove and score a touchdown to take the lead with just 23 seconds left. It appeared at that point that the Seminoles would win, but Weiler had other ideas.

The Tar Heels completed two passes and used two timeouts to get the ball to the FSU 37 with four seconds remaining. Then they called on Weiler to attempt the biggest kick of his life. The senior delivered and celebrated by taunting FSU with the tomahawk chop:

He was also carried off the field by his teammates:

Of course Weiler led the locker room celebration.

He earned that moment. UNC is now 4-1 while FSU is 3-2.
