Virginia (0-3) at North Carolina (3-1, 0-1 ACC)

Posted Oct 2, 2009
Key for the Cavaliers: A plus-five turnover margin would be nice. Failing that, a good bus driver who can get them out of town in a hurry. Key for the Tar Heels: Re-establish the running game. The Heels managed 17 rushing yards on 18 attempts at Georgia Tech, and only one of the plays was a sack. (And it lost seven yards, not 27.) (ACC Sports Journal)
