South's Oldest Rivalry Renews Saturday

Carolina completes a two-game road swing Saturday when the Tar Heels visit Virginia at Scott Stadium at 12:20 p.m. The meeting will be the 123rd edition of the South's Oldest Rivalry, the most-played series involving Atlantic Coast Conference programs.

UNC is 1-5 on the year and 1-3 in the league following a 40-37 loss at Syracuse last Saturday. Carolina rallied from a halftime deficit to lead 27-20 late in regulation before the Orange forced overtime. After the teams traded touchdowns in the first extra period, SU prevailed on freshman Tommy DeVito's third TD pass of the day, a 4-yard strike to Ravian Pierce.
