By the numbers: Slowing down the North Carolina juggernaut
Frank Beamer will coach his final game at Lane Stadium on Saturday, but if Virginia Tech wants to send him out in style, it has its work cut out for it.
The Hokies will host red-hot North Carolina, and as matchups go, this isn’t a good one for the home team. The Tar Heels have scored 125 points in their past two games, and with quarterback Marquise Williams and tailback Elijah Hood there aren’t many good options for slowing down the Tar Heels. Worse yet, North Carolina's strengths correspond with some of Virginia Tech’s biggest flaws.
