The North Carolina Tar Heels take their undefeated record to Sin City on Thanksgiving Day against the 4-0 Texas Longhorns, both teams looking for their first signature win of the season.
It’s a matchup that hasn’t been kind to the Tar Heels over the years, and particularly during the Roy Williams era. The Tar Heels are 3-7 all-time against the Longhorns, and just 1-6 during Williams’ tenure in Chapel Hill. The past two meetings — both one-possession games — were won by Texas, while North Carolina’s last victory against the Longhorns came in Chapel Hill during the 2011 season.
