Tar Heels have make-or-break opportunity against Hokies

Posted Oct 10, 2018
At 1-3 and as one of only two teams in the ACC to have fewer than three wins overall this season (Louisville has two), you might think North Carolina has already hit “break,” but a 1-1 record in ACC play means there is still opportunity for a “make.” That chance comes this Saturday, as Virginia Tech will roll into Chapel Hill to play a rare night game in Kenan Stadium.
