ACC football preview
Posted Aug 2, 2006
After making a bowl trip in 2004, the Tar Heels came up a win short of that goal in 2005. A dozen starters return this fall, including seven on the defensive side of the ball. Among those returning on offense is the RB duo of Ronnie McGill and Barrington Edwards. That pair combined for over 900 yards and 7 scores a season ago. However, QB Matt Baker will have to be replaced, as will three of the team's top four WRs. Joey Bozich saw time under center last year, but redshirt freshman Cam Sexton and Nebraska transfer Joe Dailey are likely to see most of the snaps in '06.
