UNC Football Catch-All Thread 2024 Season | End of Mack Brown 2.0, Bowl in Boston Dec 28

The gofundme is for travel expenses to go out of state for (presumably experimental) care. Unfortunately, he may not get that chance.

Well, that makes more sense. And that really sucks.

Here's my quick take on the Jackets. Fantastic running game, pretty good passing game, very uneven defense. Sometimes it's shut down and sometimes it's leaving the barn door open. We're starting to get a little more consistent but certainly not world beaters.

Fortunately for you, GT doesn't even need to be small neighborhood beaters this weekend.

Maybe but this is the kind of game that we decide to prepare by staying out till dawn and hitting the hookers and blow. I suspect a blowout one way or the other which means if you're betting, it's going to be close.

Im not a fan at those types of look at me pictures alongside someone dying in a hospital. Ashamed that Mack posted that.

TBH, that seems like an unduly harsh take on Mack.

weirdly, I think UNC will put it together and squeak out a win this weekend. I think something like 30-27, 28-27, something along those lines. It will be ironic, because our last two seasons were thrown completely off the rails by losses against Georgia Tech, so naturally we will beat them when all we have left to play for this season is a 6-6-type bowl game.

Especially for something like this. That kid is going to get a whole lot more help in his GoFundMe simply because Mack Brown is also in that picture than he would if it was just him.

We don't often disagree but man are we worlds apart on this one. I think we will give up 500 yards rushing and throw at least one pick 6.

There is a MUCH higher probability that you will be right than there is that I will be right! I'm definitely smoking some fine hopium with that prediction. Still, wouldn't it be the most maddening Carolina football thing ever to finally beat GT when it really doesn't matter anymore.

When was the last time UNC football played a game that mattered?

When they played at night in Kenan? Who was the coach?

• December 5, 2015 vs. Clemson
• November 8, 1977 vs. FSU

At least GT is -5.5 so we can't lose to them as a double digit favorite for the 4th consecutive season.

How'd it turn out? I forgot.

I think you could say they’ve derailed our past 3 seasons weirdly enough. That L in prime time against a bad Va Tech team to open the 2021 season was ugly, but I think getting dismantled by an even worse Ga Tech a few weeks later in Atlanta is what broke us for the rest of the season.

Oh man. You’re absolutely right. No idea how I forgot that one. I totally agree, that loss to Georgia Tech in 2021 was the one that totally broke that team and destroyed that season.
