UNC football prepares for Georgia Tech

With the North Carolina football team heading to Atlanta to take on Georgia Tech Saturday, the Tar Heels have reached the ACC schedule and face their first challenge since the season opener against South Carolina.

According to Coach Larry Fedora, this is going to be the most difficult matchup of the 2015 season for UNC, and possibly the first real test for defensive coordinator Gene Chizik’s 4-3 base defense.

“It’ll be the biggest test that we’ve faced because of what they do offensively,” said Fedora after Wednesday’s practice.

Here are some things to look for in Saturday’s game, which kicks off at 3:30 p.
