3 takeaways from North Carolina's 31-13 home victory against Minnesota

Posted Sep 17, 2023
UNC’s defense was vastly improved from last week’s double-overtime struggle against App State. End Jacolbe Cowan recorded the Tar Heels’ 10th sack of the young season – but 1st since the opener against the Gamecocks – while linebacker Power Echols and cornerback Armani Chatman both intercepted passes. Echols’ came on an acrobatic catch. (Saturday Road)
