Week 9 went as well as you could hope for UNC. The Tar Heels traveled to Pitt and Clemson and came back with two double-digit (and hopefully by the end of the season) Quad 1 wins. They exorcised some of last season’s demons against the Panthers and showed that Clemson may have feasted on too many cupcakes instead of playing a legit schedule the way Carolina did.
Some of the play in both games was ugly as they were both scrappy affairs. UNC held both teams under 60 points, but struggled offensively. They’re showing character in these wins, though.
