The North Carolina Tar Heels are 3-0 to start the 2023 college football season, with three wins over non-conference opponents.
The latest win came on Saturday afternoon as they beat a previously unbeaten Minnesota team 31-13 backed by the play of Drake Maye who threw for over 400-plus yards. It was Maye’s best performance of the year despite throwing two interceptions and finding Nate McCollum in the offense certainly helped.
While UNC’s run game struggled, the defense picked up the slack overall and turned in a solid performance. They held Minnesota to just 13 points total and made some key stops in their own territory when they needed to the most.
Before we flip the switch over to Pitt game week, Mack Brown met the media following the game to talk about how things went. Here is what Brown had to say after the win for the Tar Heels.
