Mitch Trubisky – All he does is win, win win, no matter what!

Mitch Trubisky is the man…next to the man. On Saturday, he completed 20 of 32 passes for 329 yards and one touchdown and rushed six times for 44 yards and one touchdown.

Trubisky completed passes to 11 different receivers on Saturday.

The quarterback has penciled his name in as one of the best quarterbacks in the nation as his stock continues to rise. Despite not getting any love from Heisman Trophy committee, Trubisky has delivered this season.

At the moment, Trubisky has completed 223 of 317 passes (70.3%) for 2,707 yards with 19 touchdowns and two interceptions.

Trubisky ranks second in passing yards in the ACC behind Louisville’s Lamar Jackson. With three games left in the regular season, Trubisky has a good chance to lead the ACC in passing yards before Bowl season starts.

His leadership has consistently kept the Tar Heels afloat this season. The sad thing about Carolina’s success this season is that they must rely on other teams to help them earn a trip to the ACC Championship.

Trubisky will surely do all he can to get the Tar Heels to the ‘big game.’
