In each of his fi rst two years, Addazio has had a player lead the nation in rushing. In 2013, tailback Andre Williams led the nation and set an ACC single-season record with 2,177 yards. On year later, QB Tyler Murphy led all quarterbacks nationally, rushing for 1,184 yards, while setting an ACC rushing mark for signal-callers. Last year, BC was one of just three schools (Oklahoma and Toledo were the others) that ranked in the nation’s Top 15 in rushing defense (2nd) and rushing offense (14th). North Carolina’s Fedora Putting Points on the Board for the Tar Heels After three seasons with Larry Fedora as head coach, North Carolina has topped the 40-point mark 15 times and bet- tered 30 points 24 times in 38 games. His Tar Heel teams have averaged 35.4 points per game. In the previous 13 seasons before Fedora came to Chapel Hill, UNC had averaged just 23.3 points per game, a 14-point difference. Also, in his fi rst three seasons, UNC has averaged 446 yards per game of total offense. That compares with the previous 13 seasons when the Tar Heels averaged just 349.25 yards per game on offense. Fedora’s fi rst three Tar Heel teams bettered the previous school mark for scoing. UNC scored a school-record 487 points in 2012 and tallied 425 points in 2013 and 432 in 2014. Previously, the school had only topped 400 points once. The school put up 421 points in 1993.

NC State’s Dave Doeren: Winning the Close Ones Now in just his third season as head coach at NC State, Dave Doeren has already made a name for himself on the na- tional stage.
