UNC's offense is averaging 279 yards per game (129th in the country) and has not gained 400 yards of offense in any game this season. A large part of that has been offensive coordinator Freddie Kitchens’ inability to call an effective gameplan, finding someone other than Jordan Shipp make plays in the passing game, and starting QB Gio Lopez.
