ACC Fearless Predictions, Week 3

Posted Sep 14, 2006

The Tar Heels can’t look as bad as they did last week against Virginia Tech, can they?

If the Heels jump to a lead and Furman QB Renaldo Gray has to throw the ball consistently, the UNC secondary is good enough to make the youngster pay for any indiscretions. (Inside Carolina)
