UNC Defense Looks to Remain Stout Against Virginia Tech

Posted Oct 1, 2012
North Carolina's defense has been rather dominant lately - even if it might be overshadowed by the buzz around new coach Larry Fedora's fast-paced offense. The Tar Heels haven't allowed a touchdown in 10 quarters, and nobody has reached the end zone against them at home. Not since the second quarter of the loss at Louisville on Sept. 15 have they allowed anyone to cross the goal line. (Inside Carolina)
