2017 UNC Opponent Preview: Old Dominion Monarchs

Posted Jul 31, 2017
In Old Dominion, UNC gets an opponent coming off a 10-win season and its first bowl berth and win—24-20 over Eastern Michigan in the Bahamas Bowl. Many remember the Heels’ 2013 visit against the Monarchs. The Heels put up 80 points and went to a running 12-minute clock in the 4th quarter, even getting social media celebrity Caleb Pressley time at quarterback. (Tar Heel Blog)
