North Carolina Tar Heels
The North Carolina Tar Heels couldn’t have asked for a better start to their season. In each of the first two games of the season they were underdogs and each of the games they came away with victories.

In their last game against the Miami Hurricanes, they didn’t play lights out, but at the end of the game they were able to come away with a victory.
At quarterback, the Tar Heels are led by freshman Sam Howell who has been great this year throwing for 519 yards and four touchdowns. The most impressive part is he still hasn’t thrown an interception.
On the defensive side the Tar Heels have been good, but this is going to be a test and they are going to need to continue their strong play.
If they can find a way to win this game there is going to be quite the buzz around this team. This is a team who wins total at the beginning of the season was set at 3.5.
