Mack Brown Not Pleased With 'Dangerous' Field Conditions At Holiday Bowl

Posted Dec 29, 2022
"It was very dangerous," UNC head coach Mack Brown said, referring to the infield side of the football field. "I don’t know if it was a hole in the tarp, it was so soggy that we started trying to figure out which way do you kick? The first field goal we kicked, Noah Burnette slipped. The first series we went out, Asim Richards slipped, then Drake Maye slipped." (Tar Heel Illustrated)
