Mack Hollins catches his opportunities

You’d think teams would know better by now.

But on Saturday, against Duke, there went Mack Hollins again, streaking by the defense for another long touchdown.

Week after week, Hollins has torched North Carolina opponents, with seven touchdowns in his past six games. The junior receiver is tied for second in the nation in yards-per-catch with 26.3. Almost every time he catches the ball, it’s a huge play for UNC.

And even though defenses know what is coming, they can’t stop it. They can’t afford to change their system to dedicate extra attention to Hollins because someone else on the Tar Heel offense will burn them.
