When quarterback Mitch Trubisky led the game-winning drive last week against Pittsburgh, it came as no surprise to his North Carolina teammates. To hear them tell it, he barely flinched. “Calm as he could be,” said receiver Bug Howard, who caught the last two touchdown passes. Now more college football fans and observers are learning about Trubisky. (Burlington Times News)
