The UNC basketball team will look to bounce back from its embarrassing 29-point loss to Kentucky over the weekend when Appalachian State visits the Smith Center Tuesday night. The Tar Heels and Mountaineers have not met on the basketball court since the 2015-16 season, and Carolina leads the series 5-0 since 1950. Appalachian State is coming off an NCAA Tournament appearance last spring, the program’s first since 2000.

If you aren’t making the trip to the Smith Center 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 5:30 p.m. with Countdown to Tip-Off With Brighton McConnell.

At 6 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

The game will be broadcast on ACC Network. Television coverage will start at 7 p.m. As of today, DirecTV, Xfinity, Dish Network and Spectrum all carry 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, including ACC Network.

Hulu TV also goes for $65/month and includes all of ESPN’s 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.
