Tar Heels put another item on to-do checklist

Posted Sep 20, 2011
When North Carolina faces off against No. 25 Georgia Tech (3-0) it will be trying to earn its first road victory against the Yellow Jackets since 1997. Four of the Tar Heels’ six most-recent road losses in the series have been decided by a touchdown or less. But their last trip resulted in a 24-7 defeat on a soggy September afternoon in 2009. “I’m excited for the challenge,” quarterback Bryn Renner said. (Burlington Times News)
