Cavaliers, Tar Heels meet for chance at 3-0
Posted Sep 17, 2011
Jonathan Cooper couldn’t hide his disbelief when told North Carolina hasn’t won an ACC opener in more than a decade. While the program has seemingly climbed out of its perennial struggles under John Bunting, the Tar Heels still carry a bad run of performances in league openers heading into Saturday’s game against Virginia. They haven’t won their ACC opener since winning at Wake Forest in 2000.
