UNC Football: Elijah Hood responds to ESPN prediction

We are still months away from the start of the 2016-17 college football season, but the predictions are flowing in.

The North Carolina Tar Heels will open the season in Atlanta against the Georgia Bulldogs, playing in the Chick-Fil-A Kickoff Game. It will be the second-straight season the Tar Heels open against a SEC opponent, as they lost to South Carolina last year.

With some time until the game, ESPN has already released some predictions and they aren’t showing any love to the Tar Heels.

The network predicted that Georgia would dismantle UNC 40-13 to open the season.
