Virginia Tech Game Guide
Posted Oct 29, 2009
UNC will try to bounce back after a disappointing loss as it travels to face its first ranked opponent this season in No. 14 Virginia Tech (5-2, 3-1). Carolina has won three straight games over ranked opponents dating back to last season but it has not beaten a ranked opponent on the road since beating Clemson 38-3 in 2001. This is the highest-ranked team Carolina has faced since Virginia Tech was No. 5 in the nation in 2005.
