CHAPEL HILL, N.C. -

The University of North Carolina will hit the field tonight in a rare Thursday night game against Florida State, which officials said could lead to heavy traffic on Interstate 40.

Both teams are still looking for their first ACC conference win and the game will be televised on ESPN.

The university began warning motorists about the game through signs.

UNC employees will get to leave work early to help ease some of the traffic congestion. And even though UNC is on fall break, the game is expected to draw a large audience.

"If you are coming on campus consider ride sharing," said Randy Young. "Share a ride on campus and it will make it easier for everyone to get in their seats on time to enjoy the game."

The game is scheduled to begin at 8 p.m.
