A flock of flunking grades for Triangle college coaches in Week 1

Posted Sep 4, 2017
Larry Fedora, UNC, F: It was a dreadful opener for the Tar Heel defense, which got completely picked apart by Ross Bowers in a 35-30 California win at Chapel Hill. But worse, the turning point was a senseless late hit to Bowers’ helmet by defensive tackle Jalen Dalton with Carolina up 17-7 in the second half. Dalton got ejected. Bowers and his offense came to life. (WRAL Sports Fan)
