Tar Heels let defense do heavy lifting in defeat of Virginia
Posted Oct 25, 2015
North Carolina has a defense good enough to win ACC football games. Let that sink in. UNC didn’t allow a second-half point for the second game in a row, stumping Virginia 26-13 on Saturday at Kenan Stadium. “Just being disciplined,” Tar Heels safety Sam Smiley said. “Whatever we didn’t do right in the first half, we’re trying to do right in the second half.”
