College football predictions

Posted Sep 27, 2008
The Tar Heels will be using a new quarterback when they play at Miami due to an ankle injury that’s sidelined starter T.J. Yates. I expect the UNC coaching staff will hand the starting assignment to highly regarded redshirt freshman Mike Paulus. And while I don’t have any bad wishes for Paulus, I can’t help but hope Sexton gets an opportunity to show what he can do because he’s earned it. (Fayetteville Observer)
