Countdown to Kickoff: UNC vs. Wake Forest

Posted Sep 13, 2019
Friday's matchup between North Carolina and Wake Forest may be a unique non-conference game, although it carries the same Tobacco Road significance for these rivals. The Demon Deacons (2-0), who are favored by three points, have won the last two meetings in Winston-Salem. The Tar Heels (2-0), however, hold a 69-35-2 series record. (Inside Carolina)
