UNC Hosts Jackets On Homecoming Weekend

Carolina returns to Kenan Stadium for just its third home game of the season Saturday when the Tar Heels host ACC Coastal foe Georgia Tech at 12:15 p.m. UNC is 1-6 on the year and 1-4 in the league following a 31-21 loss at Virginia last Saturday. Nathan Elliott passed for 271 yards and two touchdowns to lead Carolina, but Bryce Perkins accounted for three scores to lift the Cavaliers to the victory.

Georgia Tech is 4-4 and 2-3 in conference play after beating Virginia Tech 49-28 in Blacksburg last Thursday night. Tech quarterback Tobias Oliver rushed 40 times for 215 yards and three touchdowns, and the Yellow Jackets did not complete a pass in the blowout win over the Hokies.
