Syracuse hosts North Carolina looking to stop 2-game skid
Posted Oct 19, 2018
UNC has allowed just seven sacks so far this season, which ranks second in the ACC and 19th nationally. The Syracuse defense is tied for second in the ACC and seventh nationally in sacks, at 3.3 per game. Nathan Elliott is the likely starter at quarterback for North Carolina. He started the first four games before the Tar Heels opted for freshman Cade Fortin to face Virginia Tech.
