UNC Football: The Tar Heels Humble the Citadel

UNC played solid on all fronts today in a 41-7 victory over the Citadel.

The offense, the defense and special teams all did their part and each scored touchdowns.

Many wondered if they would have the big letdown, but North Carolina came in and handled business.

The Citadel came out in their expected run option formation on their first drive and marched down into the red zone, only to miss a field goal. UNC came out on the following series and went three and out.

After that, the Cadets were essentially non-existent.

On the next series, Mitch Trubisky hit the finally healthy, Brandon Fritts, on a 19 yard pass for a touchdown to open the scoring up for the Heels at 7-0.
