North Carolina defensive coordinator Marvin Sanders will have to draw up a little bit of a different game plan after spending nearly all of last weekend's game in Atlanta defending the pass.
The Tar Heel defense will have to change gears today, as the run-focused Wisconsin Badgers look to tire out the UNC defense with a consistent ground game.
The Badgers will look to continue feeding junior running back Brian Calhoun, just as they have done so far this season.
"(Wisconsin), as you know, has scored a thousand points here in the first two games," Coach John Bunting joked. "They have run for a thousand yards. (Wisconsin) is powerful up front."
Despite the fact that Ga. Tech stopped running the ball, they were still successful when they did hand the ball off, averaging 3.7 yards a carry against the Tar Heel defense.
Like Ga. Tech, Calhoun hopes to capitalize on the ground today against the Tar Heels.
In the first two games of the season, Calhoun has averaged a whopping 27 carries a game and has put up 150 yards per game.
Calhoun also definitely can put the ball into the end zone, amassing six touchdowns in the first two games of the year.
"I can't think of a running back we've played here in my four years and one game as here that's as good as (Calhoun)," Bunting said. "He's outstanding."
