North carolina spring football game

Are you ready for some football?!? The event will begin at 1 pm and both parking and admission are free. The Wolfpack is coming off the campaign that boasted a school-record seven ACC wins. Head coach Dave Doeren returns 20 starters and the statistical leader on a per game basis in every statistical category from last year's successful season. Stadium parking lots will open at a. Obviously he hasn't had to take on any true contact throughout spring camp and was touch sacked a few times in the game, but he certainly looked like a confident quarterback under center in his first public performance since the season-ending injury last October.

Ben Finley also had some bright moments in the game, including a long pass to set up a touchdown run of his own from four yards out. That came after a slight injury scare after he was hit in the backfield on a blown up running play, but he still remained in the game -- even though he appeared to be limping slightly on the touchdown run.

In order for Leary to shine, he needed his veteran wideouts to have strong games on Saturday. Second-year freshman Porter Rooks caught the first touchdown on a yard dime from Leary and Thayer Thomas had the second on a nine-yard pass from the redshirt sophomore signal-caller. Thomas didn't just catch a touchdown, though, he also threw one of his patented trickeration dimes to birthday boy Devin Carter on a yard reception in the back of the end zone.

Carter led all receivers with five catches for 73 yards, picking up right where he left off after a strong sophomore campaign that saw him average more than 15 yards per catch last year. Hood opens with a 12 yard run. We get our first look at Drake Maye. He looks to go deep but throws behind Kobe Paysour about 30 yards downfield. Josh Henderson, who had 33 yards rushing on the drive, takes it in from six yards out for the game's first score.

Redshirt freshman Noah Burnette misses the extra point. Howell runs the same sideline pass to Downs as before and hits it this time for Heels inside the Howell to Antoine Green for 13 yards and a score. After a pair of Eugene Asante end the backup offense's drive, Howell hits Emery Simmons in heavy coverage for 44 yards. Back into the red zone. Howell goes for it on fourth and nine and Green picks up a pass interference. RB DJ Jones takes it in from one yard out to make it Drake Maye completes what would have been a yarder,dodging the rush and hitting Justin Olson on the sideline.

Refs rule Olson was out of bounds, however. Replays show that might have been the wrong call.
