UNC is a dangerous opponent. When they get it rolling, they can light up the scoreboard. Clawson know this. In a recent presser, he talked about how he uses tempo. He said that when he first came to WF, the defense was miles ahead of the offense. So, they played as slow a tempo as possible (see, the 6-3 win over VT). Then, for a period, the offense was ahead of the defense; so, the strategy was to maximize the number of possessions and try to win shootouts (see the 63-43 win over Cuse). Now, he feels like there is a balance to the offense and defense; so, WF can play up tempo or slow it down. This is a game where it makes sense to grind it out. Keep UNC's defense on the field.
BTW, UNC has some injury issues. Against Duke, all 4 of the their starting DBs from the opener were out (1 was kicked off the team; three are hurt). It didn't matter because UNC scored TDs on EVERY possession in the first half (Deacs have to avoid letting the game get away). They may get one or two injured players back, but their secondary has some holes. Also, starting receiver Beau Corrales is out Their starting center may be out too. Also, the Heels are in a look ahead spot as their next game (after a bye) is Notre Dame.
UNC has special team issues, they turn it over more than WF and they have struggled in close games. Deacs just need to stay with a score until the 2nd half, keep the UNC offense from exploding (which is possible against anyone, they are a top 5 offense, by essentially every college football metric), and I like the Deacs chances in a close one,
