North Carolina had two punts blocked, allowed a long kickoff return, and failed to secure an onside kick in a crucial moment in the Tar Heels’ 34-30 loss at No. 20 NC State. Fingers can point in a lot of directions for why UNC fell to its rivals, but it is difficult to begin anywhere other than special teams. And the affliction essentially bookended the game.
