UNC Quarterback Billy Edwards Jr. Got the Job Done in Tar Heel Debut
Posted Sep 3, 2026
Amid the soggy, sloppy conditions beneath a gray Dublin sky, North Carolina quarterback Billy Edwards completed 16-of-28 passes for 232 yards against TCU. He didn’t throw a touchdown pass, but more importantly, he limited mistakes, finishing without a turnover in a defensive slugfest defined by field position and capitalizing on the opposition’s miscues.
