An emotional Elijah Hood recaps win: "That was honestly amazing"

Posted Sep 27, 2016
Against Pittsburgh on Saturday night UNC running back Elijah Hood ran the ball 11 times for 25 yards and a 2.2 yards per carry average. The junior's longest run was for seven yards. It was not his most productive game, but in postgame interviews on Saturday evening inside the Kenan Football Center you would have thought Hood had won the Heisman. (Carolina Blue)
