UNC will take the field at Kenan Stadium for the first time in three weeks Saturday when it hosts No. 16 Virginia. The Tar Heels are still seeking their first ACC win of the season, while the Cavaliers enter a perfect 3-0 in league play.

If you aren’t attending 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 9 a.m. Saturday with Inside Carolina Live from Chapel Hill.

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). This does not apply to the Inside Carolina Live pre-game show, which you can stream anywhere.  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.

TV Schedule

Television coverage of the game begins with kickoff at 12 p.m. The game will be broadcast on ACC Network. As of today, Spectrum, DirecTV AT&T, Dish Network and Xfinity all carry ACC Network.

What if I don’t have cable?

A live stream will be available through the ESPN app or on ESPN.com. You will need to enter TV provider information to access this stream. Additionally, several cord-cutting options carry ACC Network.

YouTube TV costs $83/month and carries all of ESPN’s channels, including ACC Network.

Hulu TV goes for $82/month and includes ACC Network, but does not carry NBA TV or NFL Red Zone.

Sling TV is the cheapest at $57/month for the Orange + Sports Extra package. Be sure to avoid Sling Blue, as that package does not carry ESPN or ACC Network.
