North Carolina's offensive line remains vulnerable.
This vulnerability is apparently evident in its pass protection: UNC ranks 85th nationally at limiting the opponent's sack rate.
Struggles in pass protection explain why its lowest scoring output of the season came in its narrow win over Miami.
Miami, like Virginia, ranks among the nation's leaders in sack rate.
Virginia is well-stocked with pass rushers in its front seven, who have helped Virginia's improved defense limit its last two opponents to 15 points combined excluding overtime.
On offense, the Cavaliers will rely especially on the mobility of quarterback Brennan Armstrong.
As evident in the Duke game, North Carolina's defense is vulnerable to mobile quarterbacks.
