North Carolina: The Morning After with Omega

ROWDY ENVIRONMENT: Wolfpack fans hate no school more than North Carolina, a nearby rival located about a 30-minute drive away along Interstate 40.

It’s hard, even with the perspective of “the morning after”, to come up with anything but ugly when you lose to the Sheep, but, in keeping with the format of this here weekly feature, let’s look at the good, bad, and the ugly from the regular season finale. “Our goal now will be to be ACC Champions”. The Tar Heels have taken care of the ball despite being without their top ball-handler in Paige, averaging just 10.5 turnovers per game. The UNC offense and defense see its Atlantic champion opponent as one with similar athletes – a dual-threat QB and athletic receivers – as its own and know they have to play their most complete game this week.

This is going to be the most entertaining game on the conference championship schedule.

The last hurdle standing in Clemson’s way from a spot in the College Football Playoff and a chance to play for a national championship is a talented North Carolina squad that has ran the table since its opening week stumble against the South Carolina Gamecocks.

Destinee Walker led North Carolina with 17 points, Jamie Cherry had 14, McDaniel 13 and Summers 11. The Terps and Tar Heels will trade blows all night long in a game with numerous lead changes. He has made one career start and has one tackle in eight games this season.

North Carolina is ranked number fourteen in the nation thanks a 10-1 record which includes an active ten game winning streak. Despite a lackluster. 239 hitting percentage, the Tar Heels posted 19 kills to Duke’s 11 and held the Blue Devils to just a. 119 hitting percentage. The 6-0, 220-pounder’s TDs were 1 yard for a 35-7 lead and 1 yard for a 42-23 advantage. Hood and Greensboro’s T.J. Logan were electric, running through huge holes and giving Williams the option to run himself or throw to wide-open receivers running free in the secondary. That sets up for a rowdy and hostile crowd awaiting to test the Tar Heels’ focus on North Carolina State’s Senior Day.

That directive, Fedora said, limited the options for Gene Chizk, UNC’s first-year defensive coordinator. But the offense will likely need production to keep up with a Clemson offense is directed by sophomore quarterback Deshaun Watson (6-2, 210), a Heisman Trophy candidate.

Has there been any player in the country more impressive than Grayson Allen through the season’s first two weeks? Justin Jackson paced a balanced Tar Heels attack with 22 points, five yanks and six assists with Kennedy Meeks tossing in 15 points. Clemson’s numbers are 37.9 points and 502.5 yards.
