Pick your poison North Carolina

sky high doesn't make up for suck hard.

And they do. No amount of national tv excitement can change that.

And everyone on here said we'd beat GT 56-17.

It was a very thin line from that being the score.

It was also 24-23 in the 4th quarter, so.....

And the game is 60 minutes, not 48, so...

so...we didn't beat them by 35-40 points like people on here were predicting

Unless we put the ball on the ground repeatedly, I just don't know how we don't house this team.

Offensively, Fedora's a good offensive coach and they have some solid QB/WR/TE personnel, but they can't run the ball. Their entire running game got drafted by the Cincinnati Bengals. Their passing game game isn't efficient enough to consistently move the chains without the threat of a running game.

Defensively, they are REALLY struggling in the secondary. My guess is they sit back and force us to methodically move the ball down the field. They were able to get away with that strategy last year because their front kept our running game in check and we got impatient.

I don't want to get overconfident because anything can happen (especially on the road), but we are a REALLY bad matchup for them right now.

Logan Thomas has struggled this year and he put up 3 bills on them like he was Warren Moon. And ECU went into Chapel Hill and rolled up 600+ yards of offense and 55 points!

We'd really have to vomit all over ourselves not to score 35, and that should be enough.

True, but that's mainly because of 4 sloppy turnovers against a methodical ball control offense. The Dorsett muff kept that game from getting ugly. They might've been shut out after the first quarter if not for that.

We averaged over 10 yards per play, which is just absurd. The turnovers (which are obviously part if the game) kept the margin of victory down.

What's crazy is that was Morris first game in which he played the entire game.
Morris was never an elite scrambler but he was a very at moving in the pocket and running if need be.

Lets hope this time off gives him the rest he needs.

Uh UF game? Don't recall him coming out :s
