Special teams produced mixed results

Posted Sep 12, 2007

Butch Davis said there are no plans to change the holder for field goals at the moment, despite two bobbles by Ryan Baucom that led to a missed extra point and the failure to even get off a kick on what could have been the winning field goal in Saturday's 34-31 loss at East Carolina. The failure for place-kicker Connor Barth to get a chance to attempt the field goal was especially painful for the Tar Heels because Barth is such a consistent weapon. (Carolina Blue)
