Posted Oct 28, 2023
UNC linebacker Kaimon Rucker is tied for sixth in the country with 7.5 sacks, sharing the number with Mississippi State’s Nathaniel Watson. He also leads North Carolina with 11 tackles for loss. If North Carolina wants to win on the road tonight against Georgia Tech, a school it always seems to struggle against, it’ll need every bit of Rucker in the backfield. (Tar Heels Wire)
