Looking to achieve bowl eligibility for the sixth straight season and improve to .500 in conference play, UNC football hosts the Wake Forest Demon Deacons (4-5, 2-3 ACC) at 8 p.m. ET Saturday (ACC Network). It marks the first home night game for Mack Brown's 2024 Tar Heels (5-4, 2-3 ACC).

North Carolina will head back home after two road games between their two bye weeks. The last four weeks have been fun for Tar Heels fans, getting back into the winning grove with dominant performances against Virginia and Florida State.

After road wins at Virginia and Florida State, the Tar Heels came off their second bye week and, behind a yeoman’s effort from Omarion Hampton, ran over Wake Forest to win a third straight game.
