North Carolina held a board meeting on Monday to discuss any additional avenues that the university may have against the NCAA&#8217;s decision. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Why has Coach Brown fought so hard to get Walker on the field? a) The NCAA&#8217;s decision was pretty ridiculous. Look at JT Daniels, who is currently on his fourth college team. b) The Tar Heels entered this season under the assumption that their offense would be built around star quarterback Drake Maye and Walker, and the results without him in the lineup have been shaky. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>North Carolina earned an overtime win over App State last week, and the Tar Heels did almost all of their damage on the ground. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Omarion Hampton ran for 234 yards and three touchdowns in the victory. Without Walker in the lineup, Maye is surrounded by a group of unproven receivers that are still finding their way. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the Tar Heels have to rely on the rushing attack against Minnesota, that&#8217;s probably not going to go well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Minnesota Football Preview<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Golden Gophers&#8217; defense has only allowed 16 points this season after soundly beating Eastern Michigan last weekend. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Golden Gophers running backs Darius Taylor and Sean Tyler combined for 50 carries, 286 yards and a touchdown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">College Football WEEK 2 ULTIMATE Betting Guide Video<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"epyt-video-wrapper\"><div  style=\"display: block; margin: 0px auto;\"  id=\"_ytid_11540\"  width=\"870\" height=\"489\"  data-origwidth=\"870\" data-origheight=\"489\" data-facadesrc=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/nK74FzJn-AI?enablejsapi=1&#038;origin=https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com&#038;autoplay=0&#038;cc_load_policy=1&#038;cc_lang_pref=&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;loop=0&#038;rel=0&#038;fs=1&#038;playsinline=0&#038;autohide=2&#038;hl=en_US&#038;theme=dark&#038;color=red&#038;controls=1&#038;disablekb=0&#038;\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__ epyt-facade  epyt-is-override  no-lazyload\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-spai-excluded=\"true\" class=\"epyt-facade-poster skip-lazy\" loading=\"lazy\"  alt=\"College Football Kickoff Show - College Football Picks and Predictions {Week 3}  - Part 1\"  src=\"https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/nK74FzJn-AI\/maxresdefault.jpg\"  \/><button class=\"epyt-facade-play\" aria-label=\"Play\"><svg data-no-lazy=\"1\" height=\"100%\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 68 48\" width=\"100%\"><path class=\"ytp-large-play-button-bg\" d=\"M66.52,7.74c-0.78-2.93-2.49-5.41-5.42-6.19C55.79,.13,34,0,34,0S12.21,.13,6.9,1.55 C3.97,2.33,2.27,4.81,1.48,7.74C0.06,13.05,0,24,0,24s0.06,10.95,1.48,16.26c0.78,2.93,2.49,5.41,5.42,6.19 C12.21,47.87,34,48,34,48s21.79-0.13,27.1-1.55c2.93-0.78,4.64-3.26,5.42-6.19C67.94,34.95,68,24,68,24S67.94,13.05,66.52,7.74z\" fill=\"#f00\"><\/path><path d=\"M 45,24 27,14 27,34\" fill=\"#fff\"><\/path><\/svg><\/button><\/div><\/div><span itemprop=\"video\" itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/VideoObject\"><meta itemprop=\"embedUrl\" content=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/nK74FzJn-AI\"><meta itemprop=\"name\" content=\"College Football Kickoff Show - College Football Picks and Predictions {Week 3} - Part 1\"><meta itemprop=\"description\" content=\"If you are looking for college football picks and predictions for Week 3, we have you covered!

Minnesota is 6-6 against current ACC teams since 1985, with the last game coming last year as the Gophers beat Syracuse 28-20 in the Pinstripe Bowl. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p>This is North Carolina's first game against a Big Ten opponent since 2016.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<iframe src='https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/-lS4CSnYKdQ?origin=https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com'><\/iframe>\n\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Minnesota vs North Carolina Prediction:  North Carolina Football Preview<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p>Mack Brown and the Tar Heels continue to take shots at the NCAA for its decision to keep Tez Walker on the sidelines. North Carolina held a board meeting on Monday to discuss any additional avenues that the university may have against the NCAA's decision. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p>Why has Coach Brown fought so hard to get Walker on the field? a) The NCAA's decision was pretty ridiculous. Look at JT Daniels, who is currently on his fourth college team. b) The Tar Heels entered this season under the assumption that their offense would be built around star quarterback Drake Maye and Walker, and the results without him in the lineup have been shaky. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p>North Carolina earned an overtime win over App State last week, and the Tar Heels did almost all of their damage on the ground. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p>Omarion Hampton ran for 234 yards and three touchdowns in the victory. Without Walker in the lineup, Maye is surrounded by a group of unproven receivers that are still finding their way. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p>If the Tar Heels have to rely on the rushing attack against Minnesota, that's probably not going to go well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Minnesota Football Preview<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p>The Golden Gophers' defense has only allowed 16 points this season after soundly beating Eastern Michigan last weekend. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p>Golden Gophers running backs Darius Taylor and Sean Tyler combined for 50 carries, 286 yards and a touchdown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">College Football WEEK 2 ULTIMATE Betting Guide Video<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\n<iframe src='https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/nK74FzJn-AI?origin=https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com'><\/iframe>\n\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Minnesota vs North Carolina Prediction: The PICK <\/h2>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p>Minnesota has the tools to keep this a tight, low-scoring affair in Chapel Hill this weekend.
