The UNC men’s basketball team will take a three-game winning streak into Saturday night’s home matchup with Elon. Carolina is coming off its best week of the season, which featured a home win against No. 24 Michigan and a road win against Georgia Tech in the ACC opener. The Tar Heels are 3-0 against Elon since 1950, but trailed at halftime of the last meeting, in November 2019.

If you won’t be able to attend the game in-person, here’s how you can follow along at home:

Broadcast Schedule

Those hoping to listen on the radio with Jones Angell on the call can do so at 97.9 FM and 1360 AM, or by streaming the radio broadcast on Chapelboro.com.

97.9 The Hill’s radio coverage of the game will begin at 6:30 p.m. with Countdown to Tip-Off with Brighton McConnell.

At 7 p.m., the broadcast will shift over to Jones Angell and the Tar Heel Sports Network for their pregame coverage until tip-off. They will also carry postgame coverage for approximately an hour after the conclusion of the game.

All of these broadcasts will be available live on the radio or by streaming on Chapelboro.com.

TV Schedule

Tip-off is scheduled for 8 p.m. The game will be broadcast on ACC Network. As of today, Spectrum, AT&T, Dish and DirectTV all carry ESPN and ACC Network.

What if I don’t have cable?

A live stream will be available on ESPN’s online platforms. Additionally, several cord-cutting options carry ACC Network.

YouTube TV prices at $65/month and carries all of ESPN’s channels (ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU, etc.).

Hulu TV also goes for $65/month and includes all ESPN channels, but does not carry MLB Network, NBA TV or NFL Red Zone.

Sling TV is the cheapest at $46/month for the Orange + Sports Extra package. Make sure to avoid Sling Blue, as that package does not carry ESPN.
