The North Carolina Tar Heels opened the 2016 college football season with a loss to Georgia in the Chick-fil-A Kickoff Classic.

It wasn’t the start the Tar Heels had hoped for and marked back-to-back seasons in which they lost to an SEC team. This game was a game of runs, both literally and figuratively. Although North Carolina was not victorious, there were several highs and lows that were visible in this game.

The good news is that there is still plenty of season left, but this game gave us some early takeaways.

Let’s take a look at observations from the UNC/Georgia matchup.
