UNC's defense locks down victory over Duke
Posted Nov 8, 2009
Earlier in the week, Duke coach David Cutcliffe called North Carolina's defense the best in the league. Saturday against the Blue Devils, the Tar Heels lived up to his expectations. UNC turned in a dominating defensive performance, shutting down the top passing attack in the ACC, and then let running back Ryan Houston carry the offensive load with a career-high 164 yards in a 19-6 victory at Kenan Stadium.
