UNC loses third offensive starter

Posted Oct 21, 2008
North Carolina fullback Anthony Elzy fractured his shoulder blade during Saturday's loss at Virginia and is sidelined for at least six weeks, coach Butch Davis said Monday. He is the third offensive starter the Tar Heels have lost for significant time, joining quarterback T.J. Yates (broken ankle, out for at least two more weeks) and wide receiver Brandon Tate (torn ligaments, out for the season). Junior Bobby Rome will take over for Elzy, a sophomore, at fullback.
