Thoughts

Biggest Surprise- Running back room. Elijah Green started late last season and showed promise. Now it looks as though he is the third running back on the roster.

Concern- North Carolina is very thin at linebacker. These guys need to stay healthy, or there could be trouble. Another thin position is cornerback. There is not a lot to choose from unless Mack Brown decides to play some of the freshmen.

North Carolina is obviously talented. The defense is also now mostly upperclassmen. It is time to put it all together for a great season!
