How The Tar Heels Spent Their Bye Week Posted Sep 16, 2014 After a 2-0 start, the Tar Heel football team had Saturday off. Here's how they spent last week as they prepare to face East Carolina this weekend. “We are getting guys back like Norkeithus Otis. The bye week gives them time to recover and hopefully we’ll have them back for ECU. It also helps us to prepare for ECU more and work on fundamental things.” – Quarterback Marquise Williams (GoHeels.com)
