North Carolina vs. TCU: Preview & Notes

North Carolina enters this game in something of a state of disarray, with speculation simmering throughout the offseason around head coach Bill Belichick and General Manager Mike Lombardy. The latter is currently on administrative leave.

So the Tar Heels could enter Week 0 distracted and not their best selves. Even if they don’t, they’ll be playing a TCU team that beat them 48-14 in Chapel Hill last year.

TCU is 6-1 straight up and 5-2 ATS in its last seven games against the ACC.
