No. 13: North Carolina Tar Heels

North Carolina was another team that seemed to be turning the corner over the past two weeks, but a frustrating loss to Wake Forest yesterday seemed to take a toll on the fan base and Bill Belichick.

While the game was semi-close for the most part, the Tarheels never seemed to have much control during any quarter. They had plenty of chances in the second half to make a run, but Carolina almost seemed disinterested in winning.

Belichick looked frustrated, as Wake Forest ran all over UNC and ultimately won 28-12. If the Tarheels can somehow win against Duke and NC State to finish the year, then it will be a miracle for Belichick and his very underwhelming first year in Carolina.
