Fifth Quarter: Records are deceiving
Posted Oct 16, 2011
Gio times 5: Even though his team didn’t win, UNC freshman RB Giovani Bernard topped the 100-yard rushing mark for the fifth straight game. That hasn’t happened since Ethan Horton did it in 1984. With 794 yards in seven games, Bernard is closing in on becoming the Tar Heels’ first 1,000-yard rushers since Jonathan Linton in 1997.
