Bernard gives divine effort
Posted Sep 17, 2011
The improved running game Carolina displayed in a 28-17 victory against Virginia on Saturday is due to divine intervention, senior Dwight Jones said. UNC ran for 222 yards, led by redshirt freshman Giovani Bernard's 102 yards on just 12 carries. In just his third game, Bernard continued to show his vision and ability to stop and accelerate place him in an elite class as he averaged 8.5 yards per carry.
