Drake Maye threw for 296 yards and an impressive left-handed flip for a touchdown, and ran for two more scores as No. 17 North Carolina raced past Pittsburgh 41-24 on Saturday. The Tar Heels improved to 4-0 for the first time since 1997 — the final year of Mack Brown’s first stint at UNC — by relying on Maye and allowing the Panthers to self-destruct. (Associated Press)
