UNC reveals jersey combo for Saturday’s game against The Citadel

The North Carolina Tar Heels will be back on the football field Saturday, just 9 days after suffering a tough loss to their rival Duke.

While it’s not an ACC game late in November, it’s still a game the Tar Heels need to win and get back on track.

Saturday’s opponent is FCS The Citadel, who will come into Chapel Hill and look for another win over a Division I program. Last season, the Bulldogs beat South Carolina to pull off a big upset over an SEC school.

The Bulldogs have followed that up with a 10-0 campaign in 2016 and now looking to shock the world, again.

With rival North Carolina State looming just a week from today in a HUGE ACC matchup for the Tar Heels, they need to make sure they pay attention to whats in front of them first. Taking the Bulldogs lightly would be a big mistake.

When the Tar Heels take the field, they will do so in a jersey combination they haven’t had much success with this season:

The Tar Heels have sported this combination twice in 2016, both times a loss. The first game was against Georgia and the second against Virginia Tech. Here’s how they’ve fared in each combination in 2016:

    It will also be Military appreciation day at Kenan Memorial Stadium. The Tar Heels host the game once a year at home, honoring those who have served and those currently serving in the military.

    Can UNC rebound with a win as they hit the home stretch of the season? Or will the Bulldogs upset a Division 1 team again?
