North Carolina enters Saturday’s clash with a high-powered offense ranked 31st in the country. Mitch Trubisky has been nothing short of excellent, especially in the last two weeks. Their skill positions are loaded with talent as well. Elijah Hood is a productive, forceful runner while Ryan Switzer demands double teams as a receiver.
Meanwhile, the Hokies have been spectacular on defense in three of their four games this season against both the run and pass. Bud Foster’s attacking scheme allows Woody Baron, Ken Ekanem, and Vinny Mihota to get penetration, disrupting the timing and rhythm of runs and passes.
