Team #20 – North Carolina Tar Heels College Football Preview

Posted Jul 12, 2010
The Tar Heels will be a legitimate contender in the ACC in part thanks to returning ten starters on offense. Fifth-year senior quarterback T.J. Yates will lead the offense after a solid season. He threw for 2,136 yards and 14 touchdowns. He showed that he can be accurate with his 60.3 completion percentage. However, Yates needs to cut back on his interceptions. (Maddux Sports)
