The Coastal is heating up as teams enter the final conference stretch. While the Virginia Cavaliers could use some help around the ACC, a win against the Tar Heels would keep the Hoos in control of their own destiny within the division.
With a win in Saturday’s game against the Tar Heels, UVA would secure bowl eligibility for the second year in a row and improve their record to 6-2. While North Carolina (1-5) struggled out of the gates, they’ve played better of late, losing to both Virginia Tech and Syracuse by just three points in games they probably should’ve won.
