UNC predictions

Duke should run for 250+. Both teams will score 30 +. Who ever wins the turnover battle wins the game.

Big thing about this game.

I'm not worried about Kaaya putting the ball in harms way, but he and everyone else at the skill positions need to be conscious of protecting the football.

Duke, Dorsett, Gus, Walford, etc. can't be loose with the football. Brad also has to be mindful of his surroundings and protect the ball in the pocket.

Hopefully the pocket isn't constantly collapsing.

Oh there's definitely gonna be a free runner or two with our make shift line
 
Here is my stab at the Prediction:

Last year we rushed the ball 45 times for 234 Yards and 2 TDs. That was without Duke Johnson for 3/4 of the game. Last year Morris threw 4 INTs and we lost the TO Battle 4-2. Last year we had to face Eric Ebron and the game was on the road and at night.

UNC is 109th in Rushing D (210.63 YPG). In 2013, they were 83rd in Rushing D (180.17 YPG).

In 2014, UNC has the following:

Scoring Offense: 37.4 PPG (20th)
Total Offense: 442.5 YPG (47th)

Scoring Defense: 41.3 PPG (125th)
Total Defense: 512.8 YPG (123rd)

This game is at home and we had a LONG WEEK to prepare and rest. Duke is healthy and Morris is gone. No more Ebron. UNC is worse on defense. Seems like an easy win for the canes, probably doesn't make sense to even watch.

Miami should win by 17 (Canes 37 - UNC 20)
 
If we can hold them to 17-20 points (like the last two posts), I would be pleasantly surprised. Maybe even shocked.

This is the type of game over the years where we all go in confident and then we lose or barely win.

We're gonna score a lot, but so will they.

48-34 UM
