Tudor: Tar Heels still need a strong running game
Posted Sep 23, 2008
Yates may be gone for a long while, but the schedule sets up well for the Heels. The key to making the most of this opportunity lies with the ability of Butch Davis and his staff to get their running game up -- and, well -- running. Thus far, the ground game just hasn't clicked. Greg Little is big and quick, backup Shaun Draughn has an impressive upside, and the offensive line is plenty experienced.
