2025 North Carolina Tar Heels Week 2 Betting Lines
Last week, Bill Belichick made his prime-time national TV review as head coach of the North Carolina Tar Heels in a home game against the TCU Horned Frogs. ESPN gave North Carolina and Belichick a virtual recruiting advertisement video. And after a perfect opening drive to take a 7-0 lead, it looked like Carolina’s night. But from there, the roof caved in as TCU won in a blowout. This week, the Hoodie and his charges have a strange road game against the Charlotte 49ers. It is rare for a Power Four program to serve as the visitor against a Group of Six program. Since this game is near the North Carolina campus, there will be plenty of Carolina Blue in the stands.

North Carolina Tar Heels Weekly Matchup
On Saturday, September 6, 2025, the Charlotte 49ers will host the North Carolina Tar Heels at Jerry Richardson Stadium in Charlotte, NC. Kickoff time is 7 p.m. ET, with television coverage on ESPN+.
Last game, the Charlotte 49ers lost to Appalachian State 34-11 as 3-point home dogs. The game went under the total of 48.5.
AJ Swann threw three touchdown passes and Rashod Dubinion ran for 111 yards and a score as Appalachian State rolled to a win over Charlotte in the Duke’s Mayo Classic on Friday night.
The game marked Appalachian State's Dowell Loggains' first game as a head coach at any level.
After the 49ers took a 3-0 lead on Liam Boyd's 42-yard first-quarter field goal, the Mountaineers rolled off 27 straight points to make it 27-3 to start the fourth quarter.
Dubinion capped an 81-yard, nine-play drive with a 2-yard TD run, and Swann sandwiched a 10-yard pass to Jaden Barnes and a 19-yard strike to Kanen Hamlett around Dominic De Freitas' field goals from 47 and 35 yards out. Swann's final touchdown, a 1-yard toss to Alex Sanchez, capped the scoring.
Swann was 31-of-46 passing for 368 yards, and Barnes caught six for 134 yards and a score. Appalachian State rolled to 586 yards of offense while holding the 49ers to just 218.
Charlotte was led by Conner Harrell's 142 yards on 13-for-24 passing. CJ Stokes had 15 carries for 49 yards.
North Carolina Tar Heels Weekly Recap
Last game, the North Carolina Tar Heels lost 48-14 to the TCU Horned Frogs as 3.5-point home dogs. The game went over the total of 54.
Josh Hoover threw for two touchdowns and 284 yards as TCU opened the season by spoiling Bill Belichick’s collegiate coaching debut with North Carolina, defeating the Tar Heels on Monday night in Chapel Hill, N.C.
The six-time Super Bowl-winning coach’s venture into the college ranks was an overwhelming storyline in the prime-time matchup, but the Horned Frogs came away with the biggest prize. It seemed far from Belichick’s championship days with the New England Patriots.
TCU held the Tar Heels to 10 first downs. The Horned Frogs’ biggest defensive plays were safety Bud Clark returning an interception 25 yards for a touchdown with 3:57 to play in the second quarter and Devean Deal scooping a third-quarter fumble and running 37 yards for a TD.
Kevorian Barnes gained 113 yards and a touchdown on 11 carries for the Horned Frogs. Hoover finished 27-for-36 with an interception, with Jordan Dwyer racking up 136 receiving yards and a score on nine catches.
TCU rattled off the final 20 points of the first half for a 20-7 lead, then boosted the lead to 41-7 just over eight minutes into the third quarter.
By then, much of the buzz surrounding Belichick had dimmed a little bit. There had been hours-long pregame festivities on campus celebrating the dawn of a new era in North Carolina football. Ultimately, it was worse than last year.

Although North Carolina is renowned for its basketball program, it also has an underrated football program. The Tar Heels have nine conference championships and two division titles. North Carolina is a regular on the bowl circuit. However, its last ACC championship was in 1980. Pro Football Hall of Fame members Lawrence Taylor and Chris Hanburger played for UNC.
North Carolina head coach Mack Brown was on his second tour of duty before his departure at the end of 2024. Brown is the winningest coach in North Carolina history and has led the Tar Heels to a school record ten bowl appearances. In his first tour of duty, Brown led the Tar Heels to four Top 20 final finishes with three double-digit win seasons and a final ranking of 6th in 1997. After winning a national championship at Texas and doing ESPN TV work, Brown returned to take over a program that went 2-9 the season before his arrival. Brown led the Tar Heels to bowl games every season since taking command in 2019. In 2020, the Tar Heels finished 13th in the final College Football Playoff (CFP) rankings.
While Brown had prolific offenses in his second tour of duty, he never found a defense to make the team complete.

Wager Cash Out - How it works
With the Cash Out feature you can choose to eliminate a wager that's already been placed, and receive back either a portion, or your full stake amount.

In order to see if a wager is eligible to be cashed out, simply navigate to your Bet Slip and check the 'My Open Bets' tab. If eligible, the Cash Out button will be displayed.
It’s also important to note that Cash Out is not contributing to any bonus or promotion including Bet Point accumulation and Rollover for releasing bonus cash.
