North Carolina running back Elijah Hood is coming off the strongest performance of his young career, rushing for 139 yards on 13 carries in a 17-13 loss to South Carolina.
But on Saturday, he'll hardly be the most accomplished back on the field.
That honor belongs to Tarik Cohen, the dynamic scat back from North Carolina A&T. After leading the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference in rushing his first two seasons, the Aggies' star was named MEAC co-offensive player of the year in 2014 and earned numerous preseason honors heading into this season.
"He’s gonna set the school record in rush yards, so he’s doing something right," said UNC junior cornerback Desmond Lawrence.
