For the Tar Heels’ season opener on Sept. 1 against TCU, ESPN will air a special one-hour College Football Countdown show live from the sidelines of Kenan Stadium, per a press release. The game will kick off on Labor Day night, capping off the sport’s first full weekend of action.

Nick Saban, a former NFL assistant under Belichick and one of the coach's close friends, will be on set for the game, along with his GameDay colleagues Desmond Howard, Pat McAfee and reporter Pete Thamel. Matt Barrie will host the show, and former Patriots linebacker Tedy Bruschi will also be on hand for the show.

Bill Belichick may have won six Super Bowls as the head coach of the New England Patriots, but ESPN’s Paul Finebaum has a dose of reality for the new North Carolina head football coach.
