UNC Football Contends with Early Open Date, Ready for ETSU

Posted Sep 10, 2026
Week one of the college football season kicked off with a full slate of games. Well, almost a full slate. UNC was not part of that debut group, having already earned its first win of the season against TCU in Dublin, Ireland. Instead, the Tar Heels utilized the earliest open week possible to focus on Saturday's home opener against East Tennessee State. (TarHeel247)
