Quick Lane Bowl Picks Analysis: Neither one of these defenses are aware of the concept of covering or tackling so whoever has the ball last is most likely to win. North Carolina has the faster defense but Rutgers has the stronger pass-rush and secondary. The Scarlet Knights will attack a suspect Tar Heels offensive line with their pass-rush but duel-threat N.C. quarterback Marquise Williams (132.7 passer rating) will keep the Rutgers pass-rushers honest with his wheels (4.70 40-speed). The Rutgers offense features strong-armed but inconsistent Gary Nova (144.6 passer rating) throwing to NFL bound wide receiver Leonte Caroo (6’1″ 200 Lbs. 4.45 40-speed).

ESPN2 News Bottom Line: Rutgers secondary will have it’s hands full with a diverse set of Tar Heel wideouts. The Rutgers passing attack revolves around the Nova to Caroo connection but without a solid #2 option Nova will be forced into turnovers. Bet a Tar Heels team that played better down the stretch and has the more consistent QB.
