Previewing UNC-Georgia Tech

Posted Sep 9, 2005

Georgia Tech will be looking to contain Carolina’s capable trio of Jawarski Pollack, Mike Mason, and Jesse Holley. The Yellow Jackets have a core of experienced defensive backs, and while their linebackers figure to apply lots of pressure on Baker, the secondary will be spending a lot of time in zone coverage. If the Tar Heels struggle to run the ball, don’t be surprised to see Matt Baker throw 30 or more passes. (Tar Heel Report)
