Mack Brown explains lack of usage for UNC RB Omarion Hampton versus Virginia

Posted Oct 27, 2023
One of the real question marks in North Carolina‘s stunning upset loss to Virginia was the seeming lack of usage of tailback Omarion Hampton in the second half. After running it 14 times for 76 yards in the first half, Hampton saw only five carries in the second half. North Carolina’s coaches came out admitting that was a mistake following the 31-27 loss.
