Tar Heels Prep for Rutgers in Big Ten Country

Posted Dec 23, 2014
UNC will once again have the opportunity to take advantage of a bad run defense. Almost all of the teams in the Big Ten rely heavily on the ground game, and this season, nearly every team had success running the ball against this Rutgers defense. UNC fans might find this hard to believe, but this is a unit that gave up nearly as many rushing yards per game (211.8) as the Tar Heels. (Inside Carolina)
