Per Joe:

Most viewers from around the country will be watching Tar Heels quarterback Drake Maye, who appears likely to be in the conversation when QB-needy NFL teams are picking near the top of the 2024 draft. Asked Monday what stands out about Maye, Gophers head coach P.J. Fleck said "everything."

"He's as advertised," Fleck said. "He's smooth. Nothing rattles him. He's a great runner. He's a great athlete. He's very accurate. He can do it all. That's why he's probably the No. 1 quarterback being taken in the draft, they say, coming up."


Go Gophers!!
 

Strength v strength when UNC has the ball

Looking forward to Saturday!

Getting pressure without blitzing will be key. Need to keep him off balance and stop him from getting into a groove.

Maye will run some but isn't a great running threat. If he makes a mistake and puts one up for grabs our D needs to come down with it. Should be a great test for the D, going up against one of the best QBs in college football right now.
