ESPN column predicts Bill Belichick gets UNC into College Football Playoff next season
Posted Feb 3, 2025
UNC making the College Football Playoff in Bill Belichick’s first season as coach? That’s the prediction of ESPN’s Bill Connelly in a column published last week, listing the Tar Heels as one of the at-large bids. That prediction comes after ESPN’s Mark Schlabach left UNC off of his “Way-too-early Top 25” list. Connelly has the Tar Heels as the No. 11 seed.
