Brian Walker Named Athlon's National Defensive Player of the Week

Posted Sep 7, 2014
Cornerback Brian Walker helped UNC avoid a home upset with a pair of interceptions in a 31-27 win over San Diego State. Walker started the game with a 100-yard pick six of Quinn Kaehler in the first quarter. He added an interception in the final 5:44 to set up Carolina field goal — a three points that came in handy as San Diego State drove to the Tar Heels’ 3 before a turnover on the Aztecs’ final play.
