UNC rush game leads the way as Draughn and White each have 100-yard days
Posted Oct 3, 2010
Through the first three games of the season, UNC relied heavily on quarterback T.J. Yates and its passing attack to move the offense. But Saturday against ECU, the Tar Heels turned to a pair of veteran running backs to carry the load. Seniors Johnny White and Shaun Draughn totaled 277 yards on the ground to become the first pair of 100-yard rushers at UNC since 2004 and lead the Tar Heels to a 42-17 rout of the Pirates.
