Crunch Time and Sam Howell Are A Perfect Match
Posted Nov 20, 2020
Sam Howell has not thrown a fourth-quarter interception during his entire UNC career. Considering the Tar Heels have lost eight games by a total of 30 points in that span, and only won a hand-full of contests by large margins, it’s not a stretch suggesting Howell has thrown more important passes with games on the line than anyone over the last two seasons.
