Are you ready for some Thursday night football? Sure you are! The North Carolina Tar Heels take on the Pittsburgh Panthers tonight in a game that unfortunately won’t have as much on the line as one would hope. The 5-4 Heels are mathematically eliminated from contention for the Coastal Division, but they can still earn bowl eligibility with a couple more wins. The Panthers, however, can’t afford to lose this game, because Virginia is right behind them in the standings.
This is easily going to be the biggest test for the Tar Heels yet, as Pitt has one of the best offenses in the country.
