Elijah Hood: "I try and punish people"

Posted Oct 24, 2015
Another conference game, another 100 yard rushing performance for UNC sophomore running back Elijah Hood. The 6-0, 225-pound back has a punishing style of running that is paying off for the Tar Heels. Against Virginia on Saturday Hood rushed a career high 21 times for 103 yards and two scores. This is Hood's fourth career 100 yard game. (Carolina Blue)
