Inconsistent Ground Game A Recurring Problem For UNC

Posted Sep 21, 2019
Barring a lone drive in the third quarter, North Carolina struggled to consistently run the ball once again in its 34-31 loss to Appalachian State in Kenan Stadium on Saturday. While the Tar Heels would finish with 146 rushing yards, nearly half of those yards came from a single player on a single drive. The running game simply wasn’t consistent enough.
