Tar Heels too much: UNC pounds rival NC State into submission

Posted Oct 25, 2020
Too much balance and firepower for North Carolina. Too many mistakes for NC State. Javonte Williams and Michael Carter delivered another big double-barreled rushing effort and the 14th-ranked Tar Heels forced four turnovers on defense on the way to a 48-21 pounding of the 23rd-ranked Wolfpack in ACC football Saturday afternoon at Kenan Stadium.
