Posted Sep 12, 2009
Carolina's defense has allowed just 16 points over its first two games of the season for its lowest total in the opening two games since surrendering just 10 points over the first two contests of the 1996 season. The Tar Heels are 2-0 for the second straight season and just the second time since 2000. The Tar Heels' 12 points marked their fewest in a victory under Butch Davis and fewest in a win since a 7-5 victory over Virginia in 2005. (Tar Heel Blue)
