The No. 15 Oregon Ducks will look to close out the 2022 season on a high note on Wednesday when they face the North Carolina Tar Heels in the Holiday Bowl.

The showdown in San Diego will serve as the first-ever matchup between the Ducks and Tar Heels.

“They’re a good team,” Oregon coach Dan Lanning said of the Tar Heels earlier this month. “I’ve got a lot of respect for (head coach Mack Brown) and the job that he’s done there. Obviously, they’re playing a championship in their conference; they’re really explosive on offense and have a great quarterback that did a lot of things.

“I’ve worked with some of the guys that they have on their defensive staff. I think they do a really good job. So it’s a great opponent, you want to play a good team. We got fortunate to play a good team in the bowl game.”

This will mark the fourth time that the Ducks have played in the Holiday Bowl in the game’s 43-year history.

Oregon defeated Oklahoma State, 42-31, under Mike Bellotti in 2008. It lost to Bob Stoops’ Oklahoma Sooners, 17-14, in 2005.

In 2000, Bellotti’s Ducks defeated Texas, 35-30.

Key quotes

Dan Lanning on the involvement of Oregon’s newly-hired offensive coordinator, Will Stein, during bowl game prep

“He’s helping us as a coach but it’s a different role than what he’ll have next year, certainly. We’re going to lean on everyone’s expertise and you have an opportunity to get an extra set of eyes to help you and an extra set of ears on the field, so you want to use them. …  (Oregon tight ends coach Drew Mehringer) and (Oregon receivers coach Junior Adams) and the offensive staff are going to work together and put together the best game plan we have.”

Lanning on UNC’s Holiday Bowl opt-outs, and if they affect Oregon’s preparation for the game

“Not a ton. You’re playing the team, you’re playing the scheme, and you’re playing the players. Certainly, there are some differences. But nobody goes into the bowl game with the same group they had any more. That’s what’s changed in college football, so they have to adapt and we have to adapt.”
