Lucas: Faces

Posted Oct 20, 2006

There is no analysis here. There is no explanation for what happened Thursday night in Charlottesville. It was Carolina's first shutout at the hands of Virginia since 1926. It was only the 12th Tar Heel shutout in an ACC game in the last 50 years. Carolina ran just three plays inside the 30-yard line and seven plays inside the 40-yard line. Two of those seven plays were turnovers. So there is no analysis. This is where you should click away if you're looking for an explanation. Nobody has one. (Tar Heel Blue)
