Tar Heels Lock Down Illini Offense

Posted Sep 19, 2015
Despite an inability to manufacture a pass rush for the third consecutive game, the UNC secondary stayed glued to the Illini receivers, breaking up five passes in addition to M.J. Stewart’s first quarter interception. Junior quarterback Wes Lunt completed 46.9 percent of his passes (15-of-32) for 140 yards, throwing one pick without a touchdown. (Inside Carolina)
