After welcoming James Madison to Kenan Stadium this coming Saturday, the North Carolina Tar Heels will finally hit the road again on Saturday, Sept. 28 for a Victory Bell rematch with archrival Duke.
UNC has owned the Blue Devils of late, winning the past five matchups. Each of the last two games were decided by a total of five points, though, including last year’s 47-45 double-overtime thriller.
If anyone remembers last year, North Carolina needed a 43-yard Noah Burnette field goal to send things into overtime. The Tar Heels eventually won when they stopped Duke’s 2-point attempt in the second overtime.
You can now start making game day plays for this year’s edition of the Victory Bell matchup, with a kickoff time of 4 p.m. ET announced earlier today.
UNC and its archrival will start when it’s light out, then finish under the lights of Wallace Wade Stadium. As we get further into fall, more late afternoon/evening games will be played primarily under the lights.

North Carolina will try for its sixth-consecutive victory against its arch-rivals – and third straight in Durham. The last time UNC was inside Wallace Wade, Drake Maye found Antoine Green for the game-winning touchdown with 16 seconds left.
