If you had to poll Tar Heel faithful, it's safe to say that the majority of fans will say they absolutely love the classic look.

North Carolina, the "away" team in this game, is bringing out the classic uniform look. The Tar Heels will be wearing white tops with Carolina blue pants, as the team's helmets will feature the word "UNC" in Ireland's national colors.
Very nice, very nice!
This is a big game for the UNC football program, a group that hopes to make an immediate statement following a very disappointing season. Bill Belichick is back for year two at the helm, and while his son, defensive coordinator Steve Belichick, won't be with the team, the Tar Heels' main objective remains the same.
Find a way to win.
This year's group features a ton of newcomers and it will be very interesting to see how it all plays out. What the Tar Heels can't afford is to go through a season like they did a year ago, as the pressure is on for the staff to figure out a way to win games and remain competitive against a solid schedule of opponents.
We're oh so close to opening kickoff, as the anticipation for game day gets higher by the minute. The good news is, we don't have to wait all day to see the Tar Heels take the field, unlike a season ago when we had to wait until Monday night football to get our first glimpse of the Belichick era.
We know one thing is for sure: the Tar Heels will be looking good when they take the field on Saturday afternoon!
