Comparing teams that were led by Sam Howell and Drake Maye to any team Wake Forest has fielded over the past 10 years is wild. Though Hartman did his best to make Wake relevant. Bottom line is UNC was expected to win their division and compete for an ACC Championship with those two at QB, saying otherwise is just being a Duke homer. Carolina is obviously not the same team without an elite QB and have a long way to go to rebuild the program but to think UNC fans had Duke circled on their calendars over the past 20 years is just wrong. NCSU has essentially become Carolina’s #1 rival in football because Duke has been so bad recently.

You’re right… the SEC’s most respected insider and pundit, Paul Finebaum states that UNC would be the SEC’s top target should they choose to expand again but I guess it’s all smoke and mirrors and you know what’s fact and fiction since your credentials consist of… *checks notes* posting on a message board. But back to the topic of Duke and UNC, if it’s your opinion that your team sucks if they don’t win a championship then why even watch sports… you are setting yourself up for a lot of disappointment.

Titles has nothing to do with it and I didn’t bring up how many titles any team has won as history from 50 years ago has no bearing on a team’s aspirations from just 5 years ago. You and your Duke buddy can continue to live in the past off of some ACC title that you won 30 years ago but bottom line is over the past 10 years Carolina has been the better program and has had title aspirations appearing in two of the championship games. Regardless of if Howell and Maye carried their teams, the thought doesn’t change that over the past few years Carolina thought they had a chance to win a title with those two at the helm and not one Carolina fan would tell you that their success hinged on beating Duke. Duke was just another game on the schedule. Being delusional is blaming the refs for your losses when Duke is 7-28 against Carolina since the 90’s.

With all due respect, no one gives a poo about who won the ACC in 1963. Bottom line is over the past 10 years UNC has been a much better football program than Duke and had championship aspirations when they were getting elite play from the QB position.

As a Charlotte sports fan (Panthers and Hornets), it’s been a breath of fresh air to see a guy not mail it in after getting a massive contract. Good for Hunt, he deserves every penny.

This is just an idiotic statement, specifically referencing the actual ACC Championship game that has only been played since 2005, UNC has been in that game more than Duke and NCSU… COMBINED. So yes, over the past decade with the likes of Howell and Maye at QB, UNC fans had much bigger goals than just beating Duke which they’ve done so on a consistent basis.

Rosy actually had really good chemistry with Aho and Jarvis in their preseason game.

So what’s everyone’s line predictions? As of right now I’m going with the below: Roslovic - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - Kotkaniemi - Necas Martinook - Staal - Carrier Blake - Drury - Lemieux Jost Slavin - Burns Orlov - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Smith Kochetkov Andersen Chicago/ECHL - Robinson, Trikozov, Nadeau, Unger-Sorum, Suzuki, Slavin, Gunler, Robidas, Jaaska, Brind’Amour, Ryan, Heimosalmi, Morrow, Stillman, Legault, Montgomery, Honka, Fensore, Seeley, Martin, Perets, Khazheyev Waived - Gagner, Grimaldi

UNC won’t be seriously competitive in anything outside of field hockey until they get serious about NIL.

Unlikely, UNC fans don’t even care that Mack has owned Duke because at the end of the day it’s about winning the ACC, not beating Duke. If your only focus is on beating your rival then you’ll end up content year after year like NCSU fans. Now if we were a playoff contender then I’d definitely be upset but this is just a bad UNC team that can’t be saved by Sam Howell or Drake Maye.

Huge point on the road against Miami.

The young Canes blow a 4-1 lead. RBA will use this as a learning lesson for sure.

They look like they don’t even care to.

Mack Brown really should have quit last week.

Let’s see who Freeze throws under the bus this week.

Mack Brown might have a stroke if UNC blows this one.

Canes lead 2-1 at the end of one. Jaaska puts one away on the breakaway just before time expired.

Got a tough one tonight followed by three very winnable games to close out the season. Would love to get a point tonight and then go on a run. Fourth is still in play if we can get 10 out of these last 12 points.

Canes pick up right where they left off last night. 1-0 just a few minutes in courtesy of Jackson Blake; assisted by Jaaska and Fensore.

Sometimes it’s just your day, everything going right for the Heels to the point that they are picking up first downs on blocked punts now.

Mark Williams hurt again… As for the trade I like it better for the TWolves because I think Naz Reid is ready to break out for them and Randle still provides them with the ability to stretch the floor, he’s just a smaller guy than KAT. Also great business by the Hornets, the new GM is doing a great job of facilitating trades and picking up assets like Josh Green and draft picks in the process.

For sure but it’s definitely nice to see some new things like a potential Burnsie net front on the PP, more effort to enter the zone rather than dump and chase all the time, guys being willing to get to the middle of the ice, etc. It was nice to see the Canes win a game 8-2 that they should win 8-2.

Only Orlov, Gunler, and Martinook failed to record a point tonight. I’ll also say that I think the number one goalie spot is Koochie’s to lose. Andersen is starting to wear down.

Canes taking out the young kitties Now 8-2 with a goal from Roslovic assisted by Kotkaniemi and Walker followed by a goal from Carrier assisted by Jaccob Slavin and Burns and finally a goal by Svechnikov assisted by Gostisbehere.

5-0 Staal from Carrier and Chatfield
