Bill Belichick gets his biggest college win as North Carolina upsets Pitt

Bill Belichick secured his most significant collegiate victory to date as North Carolina defeated No. 25 Pittsburgh 21–17 in a hard-fought upset.

The Tar Heels, now 3–2 on the season, ended an undefeated streak for the Panthers while marking their first win over a ranked opponent under Belichick’s second year as head coach. After a sluggish 4–8 record last season, the program has shown early signs of progress, though a 7–9 finish in 2022 fell short of expectations when Belichick was hired amid high hopes.

The win underscored North Carolina’s resilience, with Belichick praising the team’s tenacity against a formidable opponent. With a critical rivalry match against Duke looming next week, the Tar Heels face another pivotal test in their push toward stability and success under Belichick’s leadership.
