A report circulated a few months back that the North Carolina Tar Heels football program would be adding a game against an SEC opponent to the future schedule. On Thursday that plan was officially announced as the Tar Heels added to their 2020 schedule.
UNC will face off against Auburn in a neutral site game as part of the Chick-fil-A Kickoff Classic in Atlanta at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium. The game will take place on Saturday, September 12th with an exact kickoff time and date to be announced at a future time.
This will be the first time the two teams have met in since the 2001 Peach Bowl when UNC beat Auburn 16-10.
