2016 season preview: No. 24 North Carolina Tar Heels

Posted Aug 17, 2016
UNC returns seven starters on both offense and defense, most notably RB Elijah Hood (1,463 yards and 17 touchdowns), and four players from my second-best offensive line. Mitch Trubisky steps in at quarterback after completing 40 of 47 passes last season. UNC won't match last year's 11 regular-season wins, but it could be favored in as many as nine games. (ESPN.com)
