There’s a lot of playmakers on the UNC football team’s offense – Drake Maye, Omarion Hampton, Bryson Nesbit and Devontez Walker, to name a few.
Maye, a Heisman Trophy contender is arguably the top quarterback in the country (4,321 passing yards and 38 touchdowns a season ago). Hampton is one of four running backs who topped the 100-yard mark in 2022. Nesbit led all Tar Heel tight ends with 507 receiving yards and tied for the lead with four touchdowns, while Walker, who is currently awaiting the result of his NCAA eligibility appeal, totaled 921 receiving yards and 11 touchdowns for Kent State last season.
The wide receiving corps is pretty much brand new, due to Josh Downs and Antoine Green being selected in the 2023 NFL Draft. Carolina last had a 1,000-yard rusher in 2021, when Ty Chandler ran for 1,092 yards. Kamari Morales and John Copenhaver give UNC one of the deadliest tight end trios in the country.
With all the talent on offense, fans took to X (formerly known as Twitter) to try and guess who’d score the first touchdown:
