The Oregon Ducks are set to take on the North Carolina Tar Heels in the Holiday Bowl on Wednesday, December 28, at Petco Park. That game will take place at 5 p.m. on Fox.

The Ducks finished the regular season at 9-3 overall and 7-2 in conference play, and came in at No. 15 in the final College Football Playoff rankings released on Sunday.

North Carolina finished 9-4 on the season.

Oregon will make its fourth appearance in the Holiday Bowl, and first since a 42-31 win over Oklahoma State in 2008. The Ducks also beat Texas in the 2000 Holiday Bowl, and lost to Oklahoma in 2005.

This will be the first-ever meeting between Oregon and North Carolina.
