Chansky’s Notebook: De-Fense!

Posted Aug 25, 2025
UNC is not exactly loaded with returning offensive skill players and will probably start Gio Lopez, a 6-foot transfer QB from South Alabama. So it is unlikely the Tar Heels can win a shootout and will rely on Steve Belichick’s defense to stop a TCU offense that put up 32.5 points a game on 5,549 yards and 55 TDs. The Horned Frogs went 9-4 last season. (Chapelboro.com)
