CHAPEL HILL, N.C. – The Atlantic Coast Conference and its television partners announced game times and television networks for the first three weeks of the 2025 season, as well as the league's non-Saturday games on Thursday afternoon.
Following an 8 p.m. kickoff against TCU on ESPN to open the Bill Belichick era of Carolina football announced previously, the Tar Heels travel to Charlotte Sept. 6 for a 7 p.m. matchup against the 49ers on ESPN+. Last season, UNC earned a 37-20 victory versus Charlotte at Kenan Stadium.Â
In Week Three, Carolina welcomes Richmond to Chapel Hill on Family Football Day for a 3:30 p.m. kick on ACC Network, marking the first meeting between the teams since 1978.
The Tar Heels have two Friday night road games this season with a 10:30 p.m. ET clash against California Oct. 17 on ESPN and an Oct. 31 game at Syracuse set for 7:30 p.m., also on ESPN.
The ACC will announce the remainder of the game times on a regular basis throughout the fall, using either a 12- or six-day turnaround from week to week.
Although 2025 Carolina football season tickets are sold out, there are still ticket options available for Tar Heel fans.
Tickets returned from visiting team allotments will be offered to Rams Club members in June by request and fulfilled based upon the Rams Club priority point system. More information will be provided prior to the request window opening.
