UNC Football: Tar Heels open as four-touchdown underdogs vs. Clemson

After starting the season 2-0 with wins over South Carolina and Miami, the Tar Heels have hit a road block, dropping two-straight to Wake Forest and Appalachian State. Getting those key wins early on the season look even bigger now because following Saturday’s loss to the Mountaineers, the schedule gets a little tougher.

The No. 1 team in the nation and defending national champion Clemson comes into Chapel Hill for a Saturday afternoon showdown with the Tar Heels. UNC will look to avoid dropping three-straight and get back over .500 while Clemson looks to continue their dominance this season.
