The North Carolina Tar Heels are 1-0 entering the week 2 matchup against Appalachian State and with the home opener here, Mack Brown’s team is looking to get off to a good start once again.
With two straight home games against non-conference opponents, getting the first win in that stretch will be key. Last year, these two teams played in a high-scoring affair with UNC coming out on top. But this year, things will be different.
Appalachian State is set to start a backup quarterback and while they have revenge on their minds, it will be tougher to do so. UNC is looking to make it two straight over the Mountaineers in this series after losing the opener a few years ago.
With kickoff just over 24 hours away, it’s time to reveal our staff predicitons for this battle on Saturday afternoon in Chapel Hill.
