Larry Fedora has some 'splaining to do...
How, in the age of trying to improve your defensive stock do you do this...???
Allow East Carolina QB Shane Carden to throw for 438 yards
Allow three second quarter touchdowns, including a pick-6
Allow 789 total yards by the Pirates offense
Allow the most points scored in school history
Allow the most yards in school history
Bottom line was that the Tarheels did and it ended up being a 29-point loss (70-41) that, really, didn't even seem that close...
Here's the highlights- obviously condensed a great deal for television sake

The American Conference now has its poster child in both Carden and East Carolina. It will be interesting to see what happens in their conference with them and, more importantly, just how much of a leash the coaching staff in Chapel Hill will have going forward.

Damage Done To Dowdy-Ficklen Now $35K And Climbing
((HT: WNCT-TV Greenville, NC))
An East Carolina University freshman, William Banks (pictured right, thanks WCTI-TV), was arrested Sunday and charged with a boatload of things that went wrong at the home of East Carolina football.
Police claim that someone drove sports utility vehicles on the field overnight Saturday and also took out concession stands and water fountains with his alleged driving prowess while under the influence.
Banks was arrested and charged with breaking and entering, first-degree trespassing, injury to personal property and injury to real property.
Here's the update from WNCT and Dowdy-Ficklen...
Banks, or someone who claimed to be him, took to a Twitter account "@xXWillECU16Xx" to explain what he did and, eventually, somewhat-apologize (pictured again, right, thanks WCTI-TV)
Banks was busted when he went back to the stadium to find a phone he allegedly dropped there- even after he was arrested earlier on Saturday for possession of marijuana.
Oh, and the person (or persons) claiming to be Banks deleted his twitter account.
