UNC’s defense makes enough big plays as Tar Heels alone atop Coastal Division with win

Posted Oct 8, 2022
After its best performance of the season a week earlier, UNC's defense went through its share of struggles on Saturday at Miami. But that unit made enough big plays to keep the Tar Heels in control on a day that Caleb Hood emerged as their main running back. With UNC's 27-24 win, the Tar Heels (5-1) are alone atop of the ACC Coastal Division at 2-0. (Tar Heel Tribune)
