The ACC revealed Monday that UNC’s scheduled road game at Virginia on Oct. 31 will kick off at 8 p.m. and be televised on the ACC Network.

Known as the South’s Oldest Rivalry, the two schools have met a total of 124 times on the gridiron–with UNC holding a 63-57-4 record in those games.

Virginia has gotten the better of the Tar Heels in recent years, however, winning each of the last three meetings. The Cavaliers most recently defeated UNC last season at Kenan Stadium by a score of 38-31.

This season, UNC is ranked 14th in the country with a 3-1 record so far. Virginia is unranked and has gone 1-3 to start the 2020 campaign.
