Who will be Minnesota’s starting quarterback against North Carolina?
Athan Kaliakmanis will be at the center of the Golden Gophers’ offense against the Tar Heels. The quarterback has led the Gophers to two consecutive wins. He needs another great performance this weekend to boost his confidence ahead of upcoming Big Ten matchups.
The Tar Heels’ defense will be a proper test of his readiness to be the anchor of the Gophers’ offense this season.
Who will be North Carolina’s starting quarterback against Minnesota?
Drake Maye will once again be leading the Tar Heels’ offense this weekend as they look to extend their winning streak. Maye has been wonderful for the Tar Heels this season, guiding them to two wins in as many games.
Their last outing was tougher than expected, however. And they can’t afford to be as uninspiring against a clinical Minnesota side.
It will be down to Maye’s throwing prowess when the Tar Heels face the Gophers in Week 3. The quarterback has shown he can be a difference-maker in the past and will need to prove himself again.
