UNC defense tackling the issue of misses

Posted Oct 1, 2021
The magic number for UNC's defense is 10. When an opponent gets more than that number, the likelihood of a Tar Heels' win diminishes greatly. When they can keep an opponent under that number, UNC coach Mack Brown expects they'll be positioned to win. UNC's defense had 13 missed tackles against Georgia Tech, and that turned into a 38-22 loss. (MSN.com)
