North Carolina vs. Miami Football Prediction and Preview

Posted Oct 14, 2021
The difference will be the best player on the field, UNC quarterback Sam Howell. Wide receiver Josh Downs will continue to be the key cog in the passing game, and Ty Chandler will chip in with a nice day running the ball as the Tar Heels move up and down the field with ease. UNC's defense will make stops when it needs to. Prediction: UNC 34, Miami 24. (Athlon Sports)
