Improving North Carolina defense begging for help in Coastal race
The North Carolina defense has improved over the last several games, and with that has come an increased confidence and swagger.
Why are they better? Defensive tackle Nazair Jones offers an explanation.
“Everybody has this pinpoint focus on finishing the season out perfect because we have no room for error,” he said. “We already made a mistake losing a game at home against Virginia Tech, so now we’re behind. We’ve got to take care of business, and then we have to depend on somebody else to take care of business so we can end up in Orlando.”
