UNC, Sam Howell to take next step in 2020 and challenge Clemson

Posted Sep 8, 2020
During Monday’s College Football Countdown, ESPN analyst Jesse Palmer provided his pick as to who could lead the ACC. "Sam Howell at UNC. Think about it, UNC goes 7-6 a year ago, he quietly had one of the best seasons any quarterback had last season. He threw 38 touchdowns as a true freshman. I think in year two, Howell takes the next step." (247 Sports)
