Illinois runs into reality as North Carolina pulls away in second half
Posted Sep 19, 2015
Illinois' fast start got exposed as a mirage as North Carolina scored 35 straight points during a surprisingly easy 48-14 victory. An Illini defense that hadn't surrendered a touchdown in its first two games exhibited many of the same old problems, allowing 471 total yards -- more than half of that on the ground, as the Tar Heels produced a pair of 100-yard rushers.
