Familiarity not enough to lift underdog Appalachian State, Capel past UNC
Posted Dec 17, 2011
Appalachian State coach Jason Capel runs many of the same concepts he learned as a four-year starter for North Carolina.

And even though Capel changed the name of one play from B-1 to Detroit, when he called “Detroit,” Marshall quickly responded “B-1.”
