UNC Football: Tar Heels will have chance to slow down Christian McCaffrey

In the 2016 Rose Bowl, the Iowa Hawkeyes saw just how good Stanford running back Christian McCaffrey really is.

McCaffrey ran wild on the Hawkeyes, rushing for 175 yards on 18 carries. He also caught 4 receptions for 105 yards and a touchdown. He even had a 63-yard punt return for a touchdown on that day. The game wasn’t close thanks to McCaffrey’s impact.

Fast forward 12 months later, McCafferey will play in his final college game ever and his opponent?

The North Carolina Tar Heels.

The season didn’t end the way the Tar Heels imagined when they kicked off training camp back in August.
