The Tar Heels will be put to the test against a lethal running back in Tarik Cohen, whom coaches know is a catastrophic run just waiting to happen every time he touches the ball. “That guy can go,” Coach Larry Fedora said. Cohen was named co-offensive player of the year in the Mid-Eastern Athletic conference in 2014, rushing for 1,340 yards and 15 touchdowns. (Daily Tar Heel)
