Mack Brown beats Florida State for first time in career

Mack Brown beats Florida State for first time in career

The North Carolina Tar Heels have another win streak going this season, winning two straight on the road. On Saturday, the Tar Heels followed up a dominating performance against Virginia with a big win at Florida State this week.

And not only did they get a win, but Mack Brown accomplished something he has never done — beat Florida State.

Saturday marked the first time in Brown’s career that he has beaten his alma mater. Going into the game, Brown was 0-11 all-time against Florida State dating back to his coaching stops at Tulane and North Carolina.  Brown played at Florida State in his college career and then spent two seasons as an assistant on the football team.

The legendary coach has accomplished a lot in his career and adding beating Florida State is important for him. Throughout Brown’s coaching career, he’s had some bad losses to the Seminoles including in 1993 with No. 13 UNC losing to No. 1 Florida State, then a top-five matchup in 1997.

Most recently, UNC has lost to Florida State as the No. 5 team in 2020 and then again in 2021. So getting a win is huge not only for Brown but for the program in general.

With Florida State having arguably the most disappointing season in all of college football this year, taking advantage of that was key. Now, let’s see if UNC can get another win and be bowl bound.
