45 years after 'Dooley Bowl,' UNC and Georgia set to meet
Posted Aug 30, 2016

On the very last day of 1971, the Tar Heels and Bulldogs collided in Jacksonville’s Gator Bowl, in a game that will always be remembered as “The Dooley Brothers Bowl.” With the recent death of Bill Dooley, it seems fitting that we revisit that game.
