Countdown to Kickoff: UNC vs. N.C. State

Posted Nov 24, 2017
A month ago, the outcome of Saturday’s regular season finale between North Carolina and N.C. State seemed certain. The Tar Heels were limping home from Blacksburg with a 52-point loss and a 1-7 record, while the Wolfpack were on a six-game winning streak and ranked No. 16 nationally. These programs have veered in different directions ever since. (Inside Carolina)
