UNC Football grinds out first win of Belichick era

Posted Sep 6, 2025
UNC still has plenty of work to do, but may have found a budding running back star in its first victory of the Bill Belichick era. The Tar Heels ground out a 20-3 win over Charlotte before a Jerry Richardson Stadium record crowd of 19,223. With a 14-point halftime lead, UNC was content to lean on its rushing attack and burn clock to put away the victory. (Tar Heel Tribune)
