Ryan Switzer

A key to an upset is getting great play from all of your units. That includes Special Teams, where return man Ryan Switzer has the chance to make a big play.

Switzer has been very good in the Tar Heels offense but hasn’t broke out the big return that fans are waiting for.

If Switzer can find the end zone in the return game, it will certainly help the Tar Heels in that phase of the game. It can also be a game-changer depending on the scenario.

We aren’t saying Switzer won’t be a key in the Tar Heels offense either.

Switzer is coming off a 16 reception game against Pittsburgh, a career-day for the senior. Let’s see if he can build off that momentum and find some gaps in the Seminoles defense, making them pay and giving Mitch Trubisky the opportunity to make a big play.
