UNC football looks to avoid bye week complacency

Heading into its bye week, the North Carolina football team seemingly can't lose.

One week removed from exercising its road demons with a historic comeback in Atlanta, UNC enters the break with a four-game winning streak and no challenger on this weekend's slate.

But this week, the Tar Heels will face their toughest opponent yet – complacency.

After escaping an early 21-point deficit to clinch a 38-31 comeback victory against Georgia Tech – the preseason ACC Coastal favorite – UNC holds an early 1-0 ACC mark and boasts a 4-1 record, its best five-game start since 2011.
