Posted Sep 3, 2021
Maybe Mack Brown wasn’t just talking his team down when he said that although a lot of people said his team is good, they still have to prove it. That’s still the case after Friday's 17-10 loss at Virginia Tech. There’s still time to show some of those expectations can be realized, but there were only hints of that at Lane Stadium in Blacksburg. (Tar Heel Tribune)
