As an FSU fan I love watching Drake Maye play elite level QB play. Hopefully we play NC in the ACC champ game would be great for both teams

[@thetarheelhuddle]

I really think that's what we'll see in December, bro! Would be an outstanding football game. Hopefully they both run the table...go into the ACCCG undefeated......and the winner goes to the playoff! 🐏💪

[@nottheatf6357]

i sure hope so dude its like the 90s all over fsu on top the the heels right on your heels in the late 90s at least

[@mr.wright7803]

Miami will have something to say about that.

[@quentindavis3715]

Don't get scared now!olunc is very good and still figure in out parts

[@charliebakerspen]

​@@mr.wright7803that's the best part of the acc right now. Miami duke and UNC all still have to play each other. Awesome football coming

[@MisterOmega-yv3lb]

Its crazy how North Carolina is ranked and how quickly Mack Brown turned this team around. 😊

[@thetarheelhuddle]

Mack has these boys focused, right now! Heels fans haven't seen this in a while! 🐏💪

[@ProsperVenturesInc]

UNC football has always fluctuated in between mid and slightly above. Forever it seems. I want Mack to get them there, but he hasn't been super impressive nor a let down. This is typical UNC football, they've been here before, but the recruiting classes and Mack himself are at a new level. He has 5 more seasons tops and at this pace we should see at least one playoff birth and that would just be ok unless they went deep. I think that logo and branding can and should be a contender every year. And they frankly are the only nc team with the clout and resources to do it. I'm going off when I don't even have a team lol.

[@kingcherenfant8216]

Fire Mack can't coach Brown

[@tylerjarman2121]

The worse part is realistically we could have put up 60+ but we decided to run out the majority of the 4th quarter…well 4 down 8 to go.

The, Tar- Heels, always start the season off good, it's all about the consistency for them and how well that they will continue play.

[@PM4K]

UF and ND (family team) fan here, and a football fan in general. Drake Maye is the real deal.

[@thetarheelhuddle]

Yeah, UNC is fortunate to have him! Sam Howell followed by Drake Maye has been an absolute blessing! Hoping we can accomplish something big in his last year in Chapel Hill! 🐏💪

[@PM4K]

@@thetarheelhuddle Sam Howell was nice too, I hope he does well in the NFL. I lived near Fayetteville in 3rd grade, I've always liked the UNC colors, I've been to Chapel Hill. I just hate how covid was made/researched in a UNC lab. That's the only thing I know for sure I don't like about UNC. Probably has little to do with the football team though.

Drake Maye is easily the best QB in college football.

[@jayc6395]

Lol...Caleb Williams or Sheddur Sanders may have something to say...it's subjective anyway

[@ProsperVenturesInc]

@@jayc6395 Caleb is slightly better than Maye, and Maye is slightly better than Shadeur. 3 of this seasons best for sure though. Still early but pretty easy to observe objectively.

[@scruffd0g193]

I think he definitely will be the 2nd QB Drafted after Caleb, he really reminds me of Justin Hebert.

[@delonteduvall6915]

Unc fan here. Our defense is still an issue

[@gagejernigan5277]

But it’s much better. You don’t need an elite defense you just need a serviceable one and this one years defense seems to be

[@tylerjarman2121]

Bs our Defense is way better like take away the first two drives Unc got gashed and then adjusted and shut them down for the rest of the game.

[@ProsperVenturesInc]

@@gagejernigan5277 serviceable indeed but UNC does need an elite D and they have the potential. This is a year for UNC to really get the ball rolling for being a premier program. Now is more possible than ever. Legit now or never. They must capitalize.

[@donjohnston6420]

​@@ProsperVenturesIncthey can improve everywhere special teams especially

[@Nocsucal-BeatGod]

It’s definitely better but still too up & down. The first quarter & and a half looked like a completely lost & disinterested group. But given what we’ve had since forever…..I’ll take it

[@SeemsFutileNow]

Can't play like this and win games against the top 10 teams

[@ProsperVenturesInc]

Duke is good, but that schedule is going to get too difficult and UNC will probably serve them a solid L due to the late season. But if Duke Played UNC this coming week, then it would be very close, very high viewership and a complete toss up dogfight.

[@thetarheelhuddle]

dook is going to be a war! Elko is a great coach and will squeeze out every ounce from each player on his team. Can't wait for that game. 🐏💪

[@DavidMartinez-pe8ky]

Heels look good 🏈👍🏻💪🏻 but they still need to clean something up!!!

[@knowledge_93]

This was a game until Pitts QB started throwing interceptions and fumbling the ball costly turnovers make you take big Ls . Great game for UNC though as they progress to a undefeated record 4-0

[@quentindavis3715]

We actually could of scores 60 but Mack tries not to embarrass pple

[@thetarheelhuddle]

Yeah, he needs to stop that. You can beat people by 35 with class.

[@nottheatf6357]

hes classy but sometime you gotta stomp dudes to send a message

[@TheToddFather1969]

Disagree. The defense was exceptional against South Carolina. Been trash since but it hasn’t been all Maye.

[@nottheatf6357]

i wouldnt say trash they have held everyone besides app to 17 or less but there are def still concerns they are not elite but id say they are good

[@TimeVantos]

well the QB let unc’s defense to sack him multiple times. and not to mention, SC’s offense is terrible as well. bad offense, you wont make good plays or block potential sacks.

[@caytonhopson3200]

As a pitt fan it’s been a disappointing season so far

Pitt is just awful

[@midnight-2021]

Especially at the quarterback position!

Duke is just good. And usually 3-9. Pitt may not be so bad. Duke bodied Clemson who almost beat FSU today.

[@ProsperVenturesInc]

Pretty much, but on paper they are defensively full of talent and 4-5 stars. Their D-Line should be one of the best in the country. The linebackers are good enough. Secondary is the weakest link, but again, a decent defense and Maye is the reason.

[@brian_b_music]

The defense is allowing less points per game than last year. But yeah if it wasn’t for the Quarterback 🙄
