UNC Football's history against current Big 12 programs

While UNC Football's history against members of the Big 12 Conference isn’t as extensive as with the Big Ten and SEC, the Tar Heels occasionally have taken on programs from that conference. With UNC playing two teams from the Big 12 this season in TCU and UCF, we thought it would be fun to see how deeply the history with the league goes. (Tar Heel Illustrated)
