The North Carolina Tar Heels get their first win of the season against the Mississippi State University Bulldogs 31-0. The defense was led by Power Echols and Kaimon Rucker. Echols had 7 tackles, 1 INT and a TD while Rucker had 6 tackles to go along with 2 sacks.
It was a nice rebound game from the 21-17 Loss in the season opener to Vandy.
