CFB: Is UNC The Worst Team in the ACC?
It is almost shocking to say but the University of North Carolina may actually have the worst football team in the ACC this year. After blowing an 18-point second half lead at home to Florida State last night only the Tar Heels and North Carolina State remain without a conference victory. The two most disconcerting things about last night's game are the way the defense appeared to just give up in the second half and the way the coaching staff seemed to give up on T. J. Yates.
