UNC Football vs Minnesota: Key matchups, player to watch

Posted Aug 22, 2024
The Golden Gophers have declared the Aug. 29 game at Minnesota a "Gold Out" night for the fans. UNC Football has not won a season opener on the other team’s home field, since beating Wake Forest 35-17 in 1992 during Mack Brown’s first run as the Tar Heels’ head coach. In that game, Brown used both Mike Thomas and Jason Stanicek at quarterback. (AOL.com)
