'They certainly are dangerous’: Virginia Tech prepares for UNC

Posted Oct 6, 2020
The 2-0 Tar Heels are led by sophomore quarterback Sam Howell, and are partly powered by a strong-run game. “They certainly are dangerous,” Virginia Tech coach Justin Fuente said. “They have that ability to take the ball to the house. Take an 8 yard gain and make it an 80 yard gain.” Fuente plans to create pressure for Howell using his defensive ends. (WSLS)
