North Carolina Football 2016 Preview and Prediction

Posted May 16, 2016
UNC will go as far as its new quarterback and unproven defense can take it. The Tar Heels need Mitch Trubisky to be as good in a starring role as he was in cameo appearances a year ago. They also need him to stay healthy, because his backups have combined for one career pass attempt. The schedule is more difficult this season, leading to less margin for error. (Athlon Sports)
