Tar Heels roll past Elon 62-0 in Fedora's debut

Posted Sep 1, 2012
Gio Bernard had three first-half touchdowns and North Carolina had its biggest scoring day in 17 years to beat Elon 62-0 on Saturday in the debut of new coach Larry Fedora. Bernard had a 59-yard TD run down the left sideline, a 6-yard scoring catch and a 70-yard punt return for a score down the right sideline — all by the 12-minute mark of the second quarter.
