6. North Carolina – Although the Tar Heels will have a new coach, there’s a lot of potential with this team. The offense returns one of the top lines in the ACC and has playmakers with receiver Dwight Jones and running back Ryan Houston. Sophomore quarterback Bryn Renner is the key to the season. The Tar Heels open with James Madison, a team that shocked Virginia Tech in Blacksburg last year. (Athlon Sports)
