UNC Scouting Report: Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets

Georgia Tech may be the toughest team UNC faces this season. As many already know, Georgia Tech uses the triple-option and has a run-heavy offense. UNC has allowed 228 rushing yards per game this season, which is 113th in the nation. The Yellow Jackets are averaging 326 rushing yards per game, which is sixth in the country. Additionally, UNC hasn’t won in Atlanta since 1997. Other than the fact that the Yellow Jackets enter the game on a two-game losing streak, not much points toward a UNC victory.

Quick Quarterback – Justin Thomas

Redshirt junior Justin Thomas orchestrates the triple-option, and he does it well for the Yellow Jackets.
