Player of the Game
Tar Heels quarterback Marquise Williams

Offense
Illinois D+
North Carolina A
Good news, the Illini figured out how to run the ball after struggling with the ground game earlier in the season. But they have to take advantage of drives deep into the red zone. Larry Fedora’s fast-paced offense gave the Illini fits. Play like that against the good teams in the ACC (Clemson, Florida State) and Fedora will be cooking with gas.
