UNC's defense has best game of the season as Tar Heels roll by Virginia Tech, 41-10

Posted Oct 1, 2022
North Carolina knew the offense would be prolific and that the Tar Heels have plenty of potential if they can get it together on defense. That beleaguered unit did that against Virginia Tech, and the test from here will be how much they can build on that. UNC’s defense produced its best performance of the season in a 41-10 win Saturday at Kenan Stadium. (Tar Heel Tribune)
