Tar Heels hope to bring Tech out of its 'Shell'

Posted Nov 8, 2008
Trying to defend Georgia Tech's flexbone offense can be as frustrating as playing the Shell Game against a street corner hustler. No matter how closely you watch the shells as they're shuffled around, it's nearly impossible to keep your eye on the one with the ball underneath. Then you're reduced to guessing. And when that happens, odds are you're going to pick the wrong one. That's the dilemma facing the UNC football team Saturday afternoon. (Wilmington Star News)
