The No. 21 UNC football team will open its 2023 season Saturday night in Charlotte against South Carolina. The game will be the third meeting with the Gamecocks in five seasons under Mack Brown, with the two sides splitting the previous two games. The game will be broadcast on national television and is the featured matchup on ESPN’s College GameDay, which will broadcast from Charlotte on Saturday morning.

If you aren’t making the trip to the Queen City 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 4:30 p.m. with Inside Carolina Live from Charlotte.

At 6:30 p.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). This does not apply to Inside Carolina Live or On The Heels, which you can stream anywhere in the world!  If you live more than 75 miles outside of Chapel Hill, you can access the Tar Heel Sports Network game broadcast stream through the Varsity Network.

What if I don’t have cable?

A live stream will be available on ESPN’s digital platforms.

Additionally, several cord-cutting options carry ABC.

YouTube TV prices at $73/month and carries the entire ESPN family of channels, including ABC.

Hulu TV goes for $70/month and includes all ESPN channels, but does not carry MLB Network, NBA TV or NFL Red Zone.
