2. Coaching Advantage

Who would you rather have: Mack Brown or Dabo Swinney?

Brown is a CFB Hall of Fame coach, but he’s not on the level of Dabo Swinney any more. He has breathed new life into that UNC program, but Swinney has built a machine.

The Tigers clearly have a coaching advantage.

It’s not to say that Brown has done a bad job. He’s gotten the Tar Heel program back on track and he’s hired some talented coaches around him. But, that staff is inexperienced and they don’t have chemistry.

Dabo Swinney has a staff of veterans led by the nation’s top Defensive Coordinator in Brent Venables and two of the top Offensive Coordinators in the game in Tony Elliott and Jeff Scott.
