UNC 'O' not in step

Posted Oct 29, 2005

Entering today's rematch with the No. 6 Hurricanes at the Orange Bowl, Carolina's attack has fallen to 11th in the ACC in total yardage, scoring and rushing. Receivers who caught 266 yards' worth of passes in the Miami game last season now tend to drop catches they should make. Linemen who opened holes wide enough to allow Chad Scott to rush for 175 yards against the Canes now commit silly penalties. (Raleigh News & Observer)
