Tar Heels rise to No. 8 in AP football poll

Posted Oct 4, 2020
North Carolina’s 26-22 victory over Boston College may not have been overly impressive, but it was enough to move the Tar Heels up four spots to No. 8 in the latest Associated Press Top 25 poll released Sunday afternoon. It’s the first time in the top 10 since UNC, which was No. 12 last week, was No. 10 heading into the 2015 bowl loss to Baylor. (Tar Heel Tribune)
