The UNC Tar Hills opted for a big change ahead of the 2025 season, announcing last week that they’d fired HC Mack Brown after a disappointing 6-6 campaign. He’d been serving in his second run at the position since 2019, going 44-33 in his second stint as the Tar Heels’ head coach with a 1-4 bowl record. It became official that Brown wouldn’t coach UNC’s bowl game this year following a loss to the NC State Wolfpack, meaning that a 35-30 home loss will officially be his last game as head coach in Chapel Hill.
