Carolina’s final margin of victory over hapless Duke belies some worrying displays from Sam Howell and the Tar Heel offense. Fortunately, UNC’s defense was stout, and if not for a brave play to open the second half (more on that later), the Blue Devils could have been shut out of the game entirely.

So the Heels are back to winning ways in the “easiest” part of their schedule. That’s good. But there are still serious kinks to work out. Not so good. Let’s get into our winners, losers, and honorable mentions from the Victory Bell victory.

Ty Chandler: It looks like the Tennessee transfer running back will be feast or famine going forward.
