ACC Football: Week 2 predictions

Posted Sep 10, 2009
North Carolina 28, Connecticut 24: This is the pick I’m least sure of, but this is where I think UNC’s stellar defense will make the difference. UConn is 1-13 against ranked opponents, and quarterback Zach Frazer has struggled with the turnovers. Keep an eye on UConn defensive end Lindsey Witten, a veteran pass rusher who will be making his way to T.J. Yates. (ESPN.com)
