Even by Downs’ lofty standards, and his perch as the premier wideout in the ACC and among the best in the country, those are outrageous numbers. Without Downs, there simply is no chance 15th-ranked North Carolina could have won its 6th straight and clinched the ACC Coastal Division title Saturday. (Saturday Road)
