Posted Sep 13, 2026
There were some off-target throws and some drops, but the chemistry between quarterback Billy Edwards Jr. and his receivers was obvious, particularly as UNC's blowout of ETSU progressed. Edwards was 15 of 20 for 244 yards and two touchdowns, targeting eight receivers during the Tar Heels’ 35-3 victory on afternoon in Kenan Stadium.
