Heels taken aback by Miami's passing strategy
Posted Oct 16, 2011
After giving up 267 passing yards to Miami quarterback Jacory Harris, UNC's defenders said Saturday that they were surprised by the Hurricanes' offensive strategy. The Tar Heels spent much preparation time zeroing in on Miami running back Lamar Miller, who had 166 yards on 18 carries a week earlier against Virginia Tech. "They hurt us too much with play-action passes," said defensive back Jabari Price after the Canes' 30-24 win.
