Re: UNC Game Prediction
Good analysis for the most part, but despite lack of experience at WR, I think we will all be pleasantly surprised.

Re: UNC Game Prediction
Overall that was a pretty decent analysis/discussion. I'm a numbers guy and like stats (for the most part) but when it gets too deep in the weeds I tune out. I'm being facetious here but when a stat geek talks about a team's 3rd down conversion rate, in the snow, at night on a Thursday it gets a bit carried away. I know this stuff has some importance but at the same time a new year brings new personnel and new challenges and opportunities. A lot will come down to the trenches. We always have good speed on defense and barring a brain fart in coverage we usually handle business in the back. We have had pretty good success on the offensive line (avoid dumb personal fouls and holding penalties) and even without 6'5" 340 pounders up front we have success. I'm just hoping we can still get pressure from the front 3 or 4 as we are still undersized.
The receiver position will see the most change we have had in years. We obviously have speed and skill there but my concern is how those guys do when the lights come on. It's one thing to make dazzling catches in an empty stadium in practice but it's different when the heart is pounding on Saturday.

Re: UNC Game Prediction
Just an observation, we do lose quite a bit at receiver obviously, but I think a lot of guys are discounting the additional reps some of those guys got during the covid year too when Sutton opted out and Hennigan was hurt all season. Maybe not a ton of reps, but enough they get a little extra game time. Plus the way we’ve just reloaded at linebacker lately every time we lose one, I’m a little more confident we can do the same at other positions. Every year we lose a good player we can’t imagine a better player replacing them, but I feel like we’ve been pretty darn good about reloading and not missing a beat. All of that combined with a ridiculous stable of running backs, and Chase Brice with another year under his belt. I think we are going to be damn good this year.

Re: UNC Game Prediction
I think we have talent at receiver this year. With four super seniors they likely didn’t get many practice reps with starting WB, so not many game reps either. The new guys get the practice reps this year and should be more prepared. It comes down to next guy up has to step up. Our programs history and culture is pretty good at making that happen. I’m not overly worried about receiving. It may be more about Chase stepping it up another level with another year in the system.

I’m betting Barbay is going to use the TEs more than we’ve seen in recent years as wellkearlnc1 wrote: ↑Fri Aug 12, 2022 1:02 pmI think we have talent at receiver this year.

Re: UNC Game Prediction
I debate whether Brooks would have been a starter in the sense of getting 20 to 25 carries a game. They have several backs that are equivalent to Brooks and the freshman are really good. The WR is a loss for them. They were expecting good things this season. However , he has been injury prone throughout his career.
