Carolina has played football since 1888 and was a charter member of the ACC in 1953. Kenan Stadium opened in 1927 in a stand of pines, and the field was named Chris Smith Field in 2020. A live ram named Rameses has worked the sideline since 1924, and fans link arms for “Hark the Sound” at the end of the game. The team practices at the Bill Koman Practice Complex, which opened in 2018.
