ACC Network college football analyst Roddy Jones joins the N&O’s Jonas Pope IV to explain why N.C. State football fans should feel better entering the 2022 season than UNC fans prior to last season. They also discuss if the Wolfpack’s Devin Leary could be the top quarterback in the ACC this season, how the Tar Heels bounce back from last year’s 6-7 season, why losing Sam Howell may not be bad for Carolina and who could be next up at QB for Mack Brown’s program.
