Through five weeks, the North Carolina Tar Heels have been an above average offense that has shown the ability to score but also has had it’s struggles. Through five games, they’re averaging 24.2 points per game and 392-yards per game. A quality start for offensive coordinator Phil Longo.
Leading the Tar Heels on the field is true freshman quarterback Sam Howell. A former, top-100 recruit in the 2019 recruiting class and a former Florida State commitment flipped and signed with the Tar Heels during the early signing period. So far, it looks like a huge loss for Florida State and a big gain for Mack Brown’s Tar Heels.
