Game Offers Glimpse into Future of UNC Defensive Line
Posted Nov 18, 2018
Larry Fedora used Saturday’s game to get more reps than normal to guys on both sides of the ball. That led to 11 different players on the defensive line throughout the game. Seven of those guys were underclassmen. Freshmen Chris Collins, Xach Gill, Jake Lawler, Jahlil Taylor and sophomores Tomon Fox, Tyrone Hopper and Hunter Sheridan all saw snaps.
