Don't Punt to Gio Ep. 17: UNC 24, SCAR 20 and Week 1 - a podcast by SB Nation

Don’t Punt to Gio is back, for the first time as a podcast about a 1-0 football team. Jacob Cowden (@jacobcowden28) joins host Chad Floyd (@Chad_Floyd) to talk about the Tar Heels’ 24-20 win for about 20 minutes, and the guys go around the globe and talk about what else they saw in college football after the break. 
First Half: 
Was Carolina’s defense a Jay Bateman success, a Jake Bentley problem, or both? The Heels dialed everything up in the second half, almost as if a smart coaching staff was letting them get settled in and coaching intelligently? Chazz Surratt appreciation, and plenty of room for growth. The running backs and the offensive line made both podcasters really happy.Sam Howell’s first time out: things to clean up, but rave reviews.Special teams (insert gritting teeth emoji)The Heels won a Power 5 opener for the first time since almost any current college football player was born, let’s celebrate damnit! Second Half: 
Jacob was on the scene for Utah/BYU.Oregon/Auburn: Bo Nix? Auburn luck? Or Oregon wearing down in the trenches? Duke/Alabama: it happened! A quick run through the ACC games, most of which Chad missed.Week 1 superlatives!You found us, now don’t lose us!
