Illinois' shifty scheme creates opportunities for Tar Heels
Posted Sep 16, 2015
North Carolina faces a "deceptive" Illinois defense this week, according to Larry Fedora.

Illinois' tendency to drop into one-on-one coverage, as it commits defenders to stopping the run, is something UNC's receivers like seeing.
