A look at UNC-NC State football since 1988

Posted Nov 25, 2023
North Carolina leads the all-time series against NC State 68-36-6. The first meeting was in 1894. Since 1988, NC State has won 19 of the last 35 meetings between the two schools. Why since 1988? It was Mack Brown’s first season as head coach of UNC. Brown lost his first five games against NC State as the Tar Heel head coach. He won his next five games. (Bless Your Chart)
