All eyes on Tar Heels defense as Carolina clash nears

Posted Sep 1, 2015
As the Tar Heels prepare for the first showdown of the season, the anticipation of Gene Chizik's defensive takeover is garnering as much talk as the game itself. "I'm beyond excited," senior linebacker Jeff Schoettmer said. "We're all very excited. Anytime you get a young quarterback, you've got to rattle his cage a little bit, see if he's got the moxie to make plays." (WRAL Sports Fan)
