Special teams a concern for Heels

Posted Sep 18, 2010
When Georgia Tech visits Kenan Stadium on Saturday, there is one area the Tar Heels hope to see a drastic improvement from the first game -- special teams. UNC allowed LSU's Patrick Peterson to return three kickoffs and four punts for 257 yards, including an 87-yard punt return for a touchdown, in the 30-24 loss on Sept. 4 that came down to the final play.
