Louisville football at North Carolina - 3 keys and a prediction

Posted Sep 8, 2017
It's hard to tell from a sample size of one game if UNC is better than Louisville's Week 1 opponent, Purdue. Quarterback Chazz Surratt could be a nice player for the Tar Heels in time, but Louisville's defense is a turnover-producing group that can stop the run, where UNC is better. If UNC can get a pass rush going, perhaps it can limit Lamar Jackson's damage. (Louisville Courier-Journal)
