The UNC football team will play its second consecutive road game at a Sun Belt opponent this weekend, traveling down to Atlanta to play Georgia State. The Tar Heels handled the Panthers last season in Kenan Stadium, defeating the visitors 59-17. Carolina is looking to begin the season 3-0 for the second time in the last three years.
If you aren’t making the trip down to Georgia for the game, here’s how to 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 9 a.m. with Inside Carolina Live.
At 11 a.m., the broadcast will shift over to Jones Angell and the Tar Heel Sports Network for their pregame coverage until kickoff. They will also carry postgame coverage for approximately 90 minutes after the conclusion of the game.
Per college football broadcast restrictions, you can access the stream (computer, tablet or phone) through Chapelboro.com, TuneIN or most streaming apps, but you must be within 75 miles of Chapel Hill and have your location services for your device turned on. This 75-mile rule applies only to Tar Heel Sports Network pre-game, game, and post-game broadcasts (one hour before kickoff until one and a half hours after the game ends).

TV Schedule
Television coverage of the game begins at 12 p.m. The game will be broadcast on ESPNU. As of today, Spectrum, AT&T, Xfinity, Dish and DirecTV all carry ESPN and ESPNU.
What if I don’t have cable?
A live stream will be available on ESPN’s digital platforms.
Additionally, several cord-cutting options carry ESPN and ESPNU.
YouTube TV prices at $65/month and carries all of ESPN’s channels (ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU, etc.).
Hulu TV also goes for $70/month and includes all ESPN channels, but does not carry MLB Network, NBA TV or NFL Red Zone.
Sling TV is the cheapest at $35/month for the Orange package. Make sure to avoid Sling Blue, as that package does not carry ESPN.
