UNC Football vs. NC State: X-Factor

A key for the North Carolina Tar Heels offense is balance.

The program is able to brag on Josh Downs and Ty Chandler on their accomplishments this season:

When looking back at the game against Pitt, the lack of balance on offense hurt the Tar Heels in that valiant comeback effort. Sam Howell was mauled in the first half, and the late-game resurgence by the Pitt defenders kept UNC from winning the game rather than settling for a field goal.

Carolina’s 88 rushing yards versus Pitt were the second-lowest of the season.
