UNC Football: Larry Fedora's postgame speech

Published Jun. 30, 2017 6:28 p.m. ET

The North Carolina Tar Heels are off to a good start in their quest to repeat at ACC Coastal Division champions.

That is because the Tar Heels came back from a double-digit deficit to beat the Pittsburgh Panthers at Kenan Memorial Stadium on Saturday. The win moved the Tar Heels to 1-0 in the ACC and 3-1 overall.

UNC didn’t play its best game of the year on Saturday, looking rough on defense once again.

But when called upon in the fourth quarter, the defense delivered some stops allowing Mitch Trubisky and the offense to do its thing.

In the end, Trubisky found Bug Howard in the back of the end zone for the game-winning touchdown.

The fans, players and coaches were all fired up after the big win.

Check out Larry Fedora’s post game speech to his team about finding their identity:

I don’t know about you, but watching that got me fired up.

The Tar Heels will now turn their attention to another ACC opponent, Florida State. The Seminoles will be a much tougher opponent and it will be on the road as well.

It will also give the Tar Heels the chance to move to 2-0 in the ACC through the first two games of the conference season. The Seminoles are still fighting for their College Football Playoff lives and ACC title hopes, needing some help along the way.

UNC will need to win out to ensure another ACC Coastal Division title and go to a big bowl game.
