UNC Football report card vs. ETSU: Grading Tar Heels after weather-delayed win

Posted Sep 13, 2026
Offense grade: B: UNC's run game looked a lot better than it did against TCU, headlined by Demon June's three rushing touchdowns and Ben Hall's explosive plays. Billy Edwards Jr. wasn't able to connect with receivers on deep routes, but he got the ball out quickly to Hall and tight end Jelani Thurman for a pair of TD passes. UNC also finished without a turnover. (MSN.com)
