John Camacho+FollowThat wild Christmas Day UNC football winUNC football’s only Christmas Day game was pure drama: back in 1982, the Tar Heels stunned No. 8 Texas in the Sun Bowl, braving a 12-degree wind chill and even some rare El Paso snow. Down 10-3 in the fourth, Carolina exploded for 23 unanswered points, powered by clutch field goals and a game-sealing fumble recovery in the end zone. The Longhorns’ offense barely moved all day, while MVP Ethan Horton ran for 119 yards. It’s a legendary upset that still stands out in UNC sports history.
