The final game of the season is finally here: the Tar Heels are just moments away from taking on the Oregon Ducks in the Holiday Bowl. This will be UNC’s first ever bowl game in California, and it is also the first time that the Ducks and the Heels have played each other in football. Both teams will enter this game with offenses that dominated most of the season, but neither team were able to do quite enough to earn a New Year’s Six game bid. The big differentiator here, however, is that UNC is still fighting to earn the respect of the college football landscape, so this game is pretty big from that perspective.
