Tough defense, four Noah Burnette field goals carry UNC to win over Minnesota

Posted Aug 30, 2024
At least for most of the season opener, the Tar Heels' defensive unit under first-year coordinator Geoff Collins proved their mettle. The unit forced five three-and-outs to help North Carolina overcome Max Johnson’s apparent knee injury to earn a 19-17 victory Thursday night at Huntington Bank Stadium behind four second-half Noah Burnette field goals.
