Turner's Take: Ordinary

Posted Nov 25, 2016
UNC football wants to be extraordinary, wants to carve out its place among the college football elite. It's close, but it's not there. The Tar Heels went 2-0 in the state of Florida. But they went 0-2 against in-state rivals. When a team wins big games on the road, it gives itself a shot at glory. But when it can't win the games it's supposed to, that team becomes, well, ordinary. (GoHeels.com)
