kickoff, in what marks the first official collegiate game of Bill Belichick's storied head coaching career.

In desperate hopes of escaping mediocrity, North Carolina made a surprising move last winter to hire, arguably, the greatest football coach to walk this earth.The Tar Heels sport a brand new roster entering their 2025 campaign.

At the first day of Fall Training Camp, Belichick announced 70 new players within the North Carolina program.

That includes replacing 11 defensive starters, two wide receivers and quarterback, with names like Andrew Simpson and Gio Lopez expected to deliver major impacts this fall.TCU will carry a few new starters, but doesn't have the roster overhaul its Week 1 opponent experienced.

The Horned Frogs' most impactful returner is quarterback Josh Hoover, who threw for nearly 4,000 yards and 27 touchdowns in 2024, but a good chunk of their receiving core is gone.For a football team with plenty of unknowns, UNC has a golden chance to prove itself as a legitimate program tonight under Belichick.

The Tar Heels are 3-0 in their past three season openers: dominating Florida A&M in 2022, beating border rival South Carolina comfortably in 2023, then escaping Minnesota on a missed field goal last fall.Were you lucky enough to get tickets for tonight's Week 1 nightcap?
