Saturday night in Chapel Hill will be an electric atmosphere as the 5-0 North Carolina Tar Heels face off against the 4-1 Miami Hurricanes. It’s not only an Atlantic Coast Conference showdown but a matchup against two top 25 teams.
As UNC enters this game riding a five-game wins streak to start the season but this will by far be their biggest test. The Tar Heels have also won four-straight games against the Hurricanes with the last loss coming in 2018.
Miami enters the game coming off a disastrous loss to Georgia Tech where all they had to do was kneel the ball to secure the win. Instead, they fumbled and watched the Yellow Jackets come back and stun them.
This game could be the difference in one of these teams reaching the ACC title game or settling for a bowl game outside of the New Year’s Six depending on what else happens. Let’s get into our staff predictions for Week 7.
