Their 1980 National Championship is closer to WWII than it is to today. Could’ve said this the last couple of seasons I guess but it’s really just sinking in now.

Tell us about the last football national championship for Carolina.

It really is insane that a state that rich in recruiting can’t win a championship in nearly 40 years.
Think of the other talent-rich states during that time period:
Florida schools have won 11 championships despite having sharing the state between three schools
California, Louisiana, and Ohio all have a couple each
Alabama has somehow pulled in 7
I will say that as much shite as we give Georgia, Texas has only managed to win one championship as well, although it was much more recent (and they have like 40 D1 schools competing for recruits)

That’s a terrifying fact to me

Well shite, now I feel old. I started attending games in '81.
It does blow my mind what the world was like just 10, 20, 30 years before I was born. The world changed fast throughout much of the 20th century. Now people just stare at their damn phones all day with little appreciation for easy they have it relative to their ancestors.

At least I've seen Georgia win a football National Championship in my lifetime. I know Carolina fans haven't, and likely never will.
