The Good, Bad, & Ugly Report: UNC vs. California

Posted Sep 2, 2018
Good: North Carolina's defense held Cal to 279 yards of offense and a paltry 4 of 17 on 3rd down conversions. They also recorded four sacks and 10 tackles for loss. Malik Carney had 8 tackles including two sacks and three more tackles for loss. One of the benefits of the injury disaster of last season is that lots of guys got reps on defense and it was to UNC’s benefit yesterday. (Old North Blog)
