Jackets vow no repetition of Heels' ground rampage

Posted Sep 8, 2005

The scene brought Georgia Tech defensive end Eric Henderson to tears. Play after play, run after run, North Carolina ripped through the Yellow Jackets' defense last season en route to a 34-13 pounding. The Tar Heels rushed for 284 yards, with Jacque Lewis gaining a career-high 161 yards and two touchdowns. One week after a thrilling comeback victory over Clemson, Tech got embarrassed.
