Bill Belichick evaluates North Carolina's confidence level as competition ramps up

Posted Sep 19, 2025
Bill Belichick knows UNC will see a step up in competition this week as the Tar Heels head to UCF. The good news is UNC has won two in a row, albeit against Charlotte and Richmond. Belichick didn’t want to undersell getting those wins due to talented football players on both teams. But going from FCS opponents to a Big 12 opponent is a significant jump. (On3.com)
