Calvin Johnson will be a handful for Tar Heels
Posted Sep 9, 2005
In their season-opening game, the Tar Heels will bump and double-team Georgia Tech receiver Calvin Johnson and disguise its coverages. Other teams, though, have used those tactics to little avail. Johnson still makes catches, often spectacular ones. "Nobody's taken him out, so I don't expect to take him out, either," UNC coach John Bunting said. "You just hope to slow him down."
