Bevo’s Daily Roundup: It’s not looking good for former Texas HC Mack Brown, North Carolina

Plus: Misery loves company.

Former Texas Longhorns head coach-turned-North Carolina Tar Heels head coach Mack Brown is facing hard times out east after the Tar Heels fell to the miserable Florida State Seminoles over the weekend, 35-25. Prior to the season, North Carolina, equipped with widely hyped junior quarterback Sam Howell, was among the ACC’s favorites.

It’s apparently not working out that way, though the ACC as a whole is struggling.

Anyway, figured this is better than talking about the Red River Showdown loss.

Peace to us all.
