North Carolina tailback A.J. Blue has breakout game against Uva.
Posted Sep 19, 2011
Tailback A.J. Blue and wide receiver Jheranie Boyd had been practicing this play all season. Blue, a former quarterback, takes the handoff, fakes the run, then steps back and heaves a pass downfield to Boyd. Boyd, having smoked the secondary, hauls in the pass and decelerates as he crosses the goal line. So when offensive coordinator John Shoop called that play against Virginia on Saturday, Blue and Boyd executed it nearly to perfection.
