Elijah Hood knows his chances will come
Posted Oct 19, 2015
North Carolina rushed the ball 33 times during Saturday’s 50-14 dismantling of Wake Forest. UNC’s best running back received only eight of those carries. But for Elijah Hood, the Tar Heels’ sophomore tailback, eight carries were all he needed to assert his dominance. Making the most of his limited opportunities, Hood rushed for 101 yards and a touchdown, averaging 12.6 yards per carry.
