The Tar Heels could not have fallen flatter after their road win against Florida State. Now they are looking to rebound on the road against Miami, who just lost to FSU.
Other than Clemson first and Louisville second it is hard to get a great read on what is going on in the ACC.

I thought Miami might have been ready for their closeup with FSU.
They lost by a point in what was a very interesting game the way it played out. It would be natural to have a letdown here but it would also be natural to be mad as hell. Lets see what coach Richt can get out of his squad.
It may determine his overall success with the program.
North Carolina Tar Heels
Mitch Trubisky has been money before last week against Virginia Tech. He had not thrown an interception and had rattled off three games in a row with over 400 yards passing.
The Hokies completely frustrated him to the tune of 2 picks and 58 yards on 13 completions – that is usually a mediocre quarter, not a game.
This is Trubisky’s first year as a starter and the rest of the UNC season may hinge on his ability to get up off the mat.

Thundering running back Elijah Hood missed last week and is likely to miss this one too.
He might have made a difference, but only on one side of the ball. UNC is yielding 31ppg on defense and that puts a lot of pressures on Trubisky and others.
Last year they dominated Miami. Doing so again would be very impressive.
They still have a great shot at the division again.
Miami Hurricanes
One point, that must be tough to swallow after having the Seminoles in their sights last week – they were up 13-0. I like what I have seen from Miami this season and they are still a great bet to win the division.
Whether they will or won’t will be determined over the next two weeks.
They need this one to get back on track and next week they beat to beat Virginia Tech in Blacksburg. That is not too much to ask of the nation’s fifth best defense and a team socring 41ppg.

Against FSU the Miami game was shut down.
That forced Brad Kaaya to be the hero and he wasn’s sharp enough. That is not great news but UNC is nowhere near as stingy on defense as FSU.
Look for the Hurricanes to be able to run the ball like they had been prior to last week and as a result for Kaaya to be able to hit some big plays too.
He is just not freakish enough as an athlete to do it on his own.

Free Week 7 NCAA Football Prediction
I though the line would be a little smaller on this one, but I guess there was a huge adjustment after seeing the Tar Heels get dominated at home.
Miami is good but that extra half point is a concern. I might wait to see how this one moves.

It seems like VT may have established the blueprint for beating the Tar Heels. Miami can follow suit and probably covers but I think they can set the pace they want and keep this one pretty low scoring.
They will want to run the ball for sure.
