UNC at Pittsburgh 12:30 Heinz Field: Series History - It’s a short history but actually pretty significant. North Carolina won the first meeting in 1974 against a Pitt team with Tony Dorsett, 45-29 – Chris Kupec and the Tar Heel offense never punted that day. The teams met again in 1978. The Tar Heels struggled to a 5-6 record in Dick Crum’s first season, but lost only 20-16 against a Pitt team featuring Hugh Green and Mark May. (WRAL Sports Fan)
