The South's oldest rivalry: UNC and Virginia have met 119 times since 1892
Posted Oct 23, 2015
The North Carolina football team’s oldest rival is one who goes unnoticed. Ask any UNC fan who is the Tar Heels’ greatest nemesis, and they’ll likely answer either N.C. State or Duke. Even when Larry Fedora arrived in Chapel Hill prior to the 2012 season, he was unaware of the longstanding tradition between UNC and Virginia. Over the past 123 years, the Tar Heels have met the Cavaliers on the gridiron 119 times. Neither program has played an opponent more than these border adversaries.
