CHAPEL HILL, N.C. -- Tenth-ranked North Carolina won't have starting safety Sam Smiley for the rest of the season because of a torn left Achilles tendon.
The school announced Thursday that Smiley had surgery Wednesday to repair an injury suffered last weekend in a victory over North Carolina State. The senior from Jacksonville, Fla., was tied for fifth on the team with 48 tackles.
The Tar Heels (11-1, 8-0 ACC) will face No. 1 Clemson on Saturday in the ACC title game.
