Inside Carolina football analyst Jason Staples joins Tommy Ashley to break down North Carolina's home opener against East Tennessee State on Saturday in Kenan Stadium. The Tar Heels are a heavy favorite against the visiting Buccaneers but Bill Belichick's team cannot discount the explosive offense and talented skill players on that side of the ball and the individual matchups should make for interesting theater on Saturday.

Staples breaks down his keys to success - beyond the scoreboard - both defensively and on offense where Carolina spent much of their win over TCU doing just enough to maintain and ultimately win that game in Ireland. Efficiency in the passing game from Billy Edwards, Jr. and getting as many players across the roster quality snaps will be items to watch for as UNC looks to go 2-0 on the season.
