UNC returns Heisman hopeful Sam Howell and comes in ranked number 10. The Hokies are expected to pass the ball more this year, we will see how that works out. I originally was thinking Virginia Tech because of UNC’s record in Blacksburg, but as I thought about it more those records matter zero, both these teams are 0-0, and both have had all summer to prepare for this first game. Mack Brown is champion, no disrespect to anyone that’s not but I think his team comes in and pulls ahead enough to cover this number. My pick is UNC -5.5
