After two weeks which saw Tar Heel teams playing as far east as Dublin and as far west as California, the first full week of September will give UNC fans plenty of chances to see Carolina in action in Chapel Hill. Among the notable games are the home opener for football and a major matchup on the soccer pitch. The football team will take center stage Saturday. (Chapelboro.com)
