SAN DIEGO, Calif. — The Oregon football team will try to secure the 13th 10-win season in program history Wednesday, 22 years after capping the very first 10-win season in school history by winning the Holiday Bowl.
The No. 15 Ducks face North Carolina in that same bowl game on Wednesday at 5 p.m. Oregon is making its fourth Holiday Bowl appearance, having won here in 2000 over Texas, lost to Oklahoma in 2005 and defeated Oklahoma State in 2008.
The victory in 2000 came over a Longhorns team coached by Mack Brown, who will be on the sideline as the Tar Heels' head coach Wednesday.
