Mack Brown knows scrutiny comes with expectations, and wants Tar Heels to be ready

Posted Sep 15, 2020
"Last year you had no scrutiny whatsoever and everybody was pumped over seven wins. Now you've got people griping over no touchdowns against an ACC team that had beaten us the last two times because we didn't play very well in the second quarter. Welcome to expectations. It's just part of it, and that's what you want," Mack Brown said. (WRAL Sports Fan)
