A Trap Game

As a North Carolina Tarheels fan, I hate to place to much emphasis on a game against North Carolina A & T but this is an important game for North Carolina. It is a game that the Tarheels could possibly lose. A & T has talent and speed at the skill positions and is coming off a 9-3 season and a 61-0 loss over Shaw University. It is a game North Carolina should win but North Carolina has struggled with games they should win over the past couple of seasons. A & T's coach Rod Broadway is a former Tarheels player in the 1970's and a former assistant for the Tarheels. North Carolina A & T would love nothing more than to come intChapel Hill and go back to Greensboro with a win.

Quarterback Marquise Williams confidence was shaken against South Carolina with the three interceptions and that was carried over from the last two games last season. If Williams struggles early, I look for Fedora to give backup Mitch Trubisky some meaningful playing time. I look for the Tarheels to establish the running game behind Elijah Hood and the offense needs to develop some consistency and the defense needs to continue to show improvement. I would like the defense to be able to get some pressure on the Quarterback with their front four and to take advantage of a young A & T offensive line.
