UNC defensive back Greg Smith named to PFF's ACC Team of the Week

Greg Smith, a redshirt sophomore defensive back for North Carolina, earned a spot on PFF's ACC Team of the Week following a strong performance in the Tar Heels' 24-20 comeback victory over Duke. Smith totaled 10 tackles, deflected two passes, and was instrumental in limiting Duke's offense during critical moments of the game. After playing all 12 games last season, Smith has emerged as a key player for UNC, recording three interceptions and demonstrating leadership in the secondary. The Tar Heels, now at 4-2 and second in the ACC, prepare to face Syracuse at home next. Syracuse struggles this season, sitting at last in the conference.
