Mere days after the devastating Hurricane Dorian, one of the strongest storms ever measured in the Atlantic Basin, made landfall on the Outer Banks of the state, a different kind of hurricane is coming to North Carolina—the Hurricanes of the University of Miami. I thought the timing was interesting, so I decided to go back and look at every instance of a notable hurricane making landfall or spending significant time in North Carolina since 1950 and crosscheck that list against years in which the Tar Heels played the University of Miami, hoping to see if there was any kind of correlation between the two.
