Opponent Preview: James Madison

Posted Aug 30, 2011
The Tar Heels kick off the 2011 season on Saturday against the Dukes at newly expanded Kenan Stadium in Chapel Hill (3:30pm/RSN). If the Dukes can survive North Carolina’s front seven, then they may find some opportunities against a secondary missing four starters from the 2010 preseason depth chart. Cornerback Charles Brown is the lone starter back from that group but he must sit out of Saturday’s contest due to suspension. (Inside Carolina)
