O'Brien says Heels offense the same with Yates or Sexton

Posted Nov 21, 2008
According to NC State coach Tom O'Brien, whether it's Cameron Sexton or T.J. Yates, the preparation is the same. "The system didn't change when Yates went down," O'Brien said. "From the standpoint of looking at what they did offensively, it was the same offense." O'Brien said his focus this week is less on who plays quarterback, and more on what North Carolina offensive coordinator John Shoop does with the overall offense. (WRAL Sports Fan)
