Confident Jordon Brown On His OL, 100 Yards & Duke

Posted Sep 20, 2017
North Carolina sophomore tailback Jordon Brown registered the first 100-yard rushing game of his career last Saturday at Old Dominion, gaining 125 yards on 17 attempts. This weekend, Brown and the Tar Heels must deal with Duke and the No. 1 rated rushing defense in the nation. The Blue Devils haven’t exactly beaten a who’s who of college football yet, though.
