Williams, Switzer help Tar Heels roll past Illini 48-14

Posted Sep 19, 2015
Marquise Williams led a big offensive performance for the Tar Heels (2-1), who had plenty to feel good about in a rout of a Power-Five nonconference opponent. The overhauled defense continued its improved play by surrendering just one touchdown through the first three quarters, Ryan Switzer had two big punt returns and kicker Nick Weiler hit two more field goals to stay perfect on the season.
