UNC vs App State game thread-Saturday 3 September 2022

[sctarheel30]

Would love a defensive stop here…..possibly a turnover

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Wondering why Shaw has not seen any defensive snaps because he is a load up front.

 

[sctarheel30]

Haven’t heard Echols name a lot today

 

[ACokeForRoy]

Haven’t heard Echols name a lot today

Seems like they are running opposite Echols.

 

[sctarheel30]

Wondering why Shaw has not seen any defensive snaps because he is a load up front.

Me too

 

[sctarheel30]

Yes!!!!

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Defense finally gets to Brice on a 4th and 7 play and the defense holds again. The App short passing game so successful in the first half is finding it a little more difficult now…

 

[strummingram]

That sack was VERY fortuitous!!!

 

[WoadBlue]

Nice stand by the D. Now if the offense scores again, App will feel immense pressure, which should lead to some mistakes.

 

[strummingram]

BIG SAM

 

[uncfootball-]

I think this defense would be better if they just had some confidence. Not play cocky but just believe in each other, dont let a bad play affect the next play.

 

[ACokeForRoy]

Chizik sprinkling a little cinnamon into the vanilla….

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Maye is quicker than I think anybody felt he was. App players going down a bunch

 

[sctarheel30]

No blackwell or Greene today but others are stepping up

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Paysour now with three catches as does Morales

 

[WoadBlue]

Paysour seems to be Mr Safety Valve Receiver.

 

[uncfootball-]

AT THIS POINT.. it can always change.. but right now our receivers are catching the ball.

 

[strummingram]

ASU defense is losing a man every play!

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Another Mounteer down on the turf

 

[gteeitup]

how much are we loving a good center this year?…yuge difference up front!!

 

[sctarheel30]

Oh my Pettaway had room to run

 

[NBBears20124ACHAMPS]

From down 2 scores to up 3 scores.

 

[uncboy10]

3 score game heading towards the 4th quarter.

 

[sctarheel30]

Three is fine but oh seven is better

 

[strummingram]

wow... 47 yd FG

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

App brings the house and Carolina is stopped but the Tar Heels get a long field goal from Brunette and now lead 38-21

 

[WoadBlue]

47 yard FG

Now it's a 3 score game. Noe the D needs to look for App to start getting antsy, impatient, and then mistakes are going to hapen.

 

[sctarheel30]

Was about to type we need an INT

 

[strummingram]

uh oh

 

[WoadBlue]

And there is the forced pass, intercepted by Gray.

 

[strummingram]

I saw targeting too!

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

I N T by Gray who is having a monster second half as he is also credited with 10 tackles with 5 being solo…

 

[uncfootball-]

That is a great play by Gray.. the key was he had proper depth after playing the run.

 

[ACokeForRoy]

Did you call it??

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

The App State crowd which was so electric and loud early has really gone quiet.

 

[sctarheel30]

Oline gotta block for the run to work

 

[sctarheel30]

The App State crowd which was so electric and loud early has really gone quiet.

Was expected

 

[WoadBlue]

Just a bit more air under that pass, and Morales has a TD catch

 

[strummingram]

Just a few inches from another TD

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

App are bringing it on every play now so a screen would have been nice. Brunette with a 43 yard field goal and Carolina now up by 20 at 41-21…
