State of the Program: Bubba Cunningham Discusses Big-Time Football at UNC Posted Apr 4, 2024 "We have big-time football," UNC AD Bubba Cunningham said recently. "The question is can we win a national championship in football? And I think the answer to that is yes. There's only 10 to 15 schools that have ever won national championships in football. I think it's possible. We have played in a [ACC] championship game twice in the last 10 years." (Inside Carolina)
