Everett Withers isn’t giving putting the blame exclusively on the offensive line after UNC quarterback Bryn Renner, who was only sacked once in the first three games, was brought down seven times last week against Georgia Tech. "It's easy to sit up here and say the offensive line didn't protect the quarterback, but that's not the case," Withers said. (Durham Herald-Sun)
