Carolina vs South Carolina game thread

Crap. That's exactly what was needed to really get SoCar back in the game.

Not looking good right now.

Nah, up 14 in the 4th quarter looks like garbage. Amazing mentality on this board.

Rattler sure had a tough row to hoe tonight. This Tar Heel DL was all over him all night. It is great to see a Tar Heel D doing that.

Speaking of the d...which looked very good especially that d line....where in God's name is Shaw??? This kid was a 5 star stud that everyone supposedly wanted. .looks like he is 3rd on the depth chart. What has happened?? Is he just not that good??

Behind 2 SR's on the depth chart. He lost a lot of weight and has been putting in the work. Just behind two experienced guys right now but will get a lot of reps this season.

He is coming….Got guys in front of him did you see #12 tonight…..DLine is loaded with young bucks….
 
31 carries and -2 yards rushing and 9 sacks…If we play like that on D people will have problems..
 
Didn’t see where Chatman got into the game is he hurt or just not they good? Coming from va tech you never know.
 
Too late to bring Conley back? Just a thought. As you can tell the defensive backfield needs some work and some dudes.
 
Good opening win. Good improvement in front 7. Some work to do in secondary. Offense needs to clean it up a little.
Weren't we missing a couple of guys in the secondary who are expected to play many minutes and perhaps start?

On offense, we were missing the 2 WRs that have been expected to be the best on the team. If we get an upgrade with them at WR, then the passing game is going to open up even more.

If this team can avoid the injury bug and learn from the mistakes of the opener, it can be in the running for the ACC Championship Game. It can be done.

Missing one in the secondary, Boykins, who is out for the season. Huzzie took his spot at the Star position. They'll have to figure out how to navigate the loss of Boykins as I imagine they'll experiment with a few different lineups as the season progresses.
 
To be fair the WR for little Carolina will be playing on Sunday..Dude is a beast…He had 177 yards by himself….
 
All eyes were on the D, but zero sacks and just one tackle for loss was impressive. Brooks is solid in all aspects.

Will Hardy and Antavious Lane didn't play. I guess there is teeny hope they could make safety a little more impactful overall.

Our corners at least looked mostly in-phase. I just wish we'd mix-in some press coverage... so much room still given up every single snap.

Both were available but didn't get on the field.

DB's are always going to look good when you're getting constant pressure rather than having to cover 5+ seconds. Like the former Bama QB said during the game, playing so off when the DL was getting constant pressure didn't make much sense. Was good to see something other than a bull rush being displayed by the DL, very encouraging.

i expect, or hope, this will change…maybe the staff needed confidence vs a team like scarolina.

but it does wonders for a defense if the front doesn’t give the corners over four seconds…i need to watch again, but it seemed rattler was more dangerous on broken plays or scrambles…that sucks for the secondary.
