Lots to choose from, including a lot in the past 4 - 6 years. I'll show my age and pick the 1979 Gator Bowl against Michigan. Back when the Gator Bowl was the Gator Bowl...
Greatest Tar Heel Football win ever = ?

- Start date
My personal favorite win was the Dook game 15 years (give or take a few) ago when the kicker made the game winner at the buzzer and then beat the crap out of some stupid blowup thing they had at Wallace Wade for the game.
That was Dan Orner, who now runs kicking and punting camps. Here you go (go to the 2:40 mark to get the camera tracking Orner as he runs inside the helmet):

My favorite was the Miami game where Barth kicked the last second field goal. There was this douche bag Miami fan yelling and screaming about how they were going to destroy us before the game. I wish I could have found him after the game to see if he still wanted to run his mouth.
I think that guy was sitting in front of me. He had a Miami shirt on that had a tropical design that added to his douchebaggery. Same guy?
Awesome find. I miss Mick and Woody.
I had $100 on that game with one of my friends who was the center for Duke in the Spurrier glory years. He's still pissed about that game.
Ok, just shows there were multiple Miami douche bags there that went home unhappy!
ETA: Great choice of game though. Pretty damn exciting!
The picture of me as an Oompa Loompa was taken that night. You can see the stadium cup I'm holding is a Kenan special. Halloween 2014. I was dancing with a girl and we were so drunk she fell down, grabbing me as she went. I busted my lip badly. After destroying the hosts' towels washing off the face paint (trying, anyway), I woke up the next morning looking like Trump with a swollen face. Good times.Ok, just shows there were multiple Miami douche bags there that went home unhappy!

Honestly- has Carolina football ever had a truly "great" win? One that meant something at the end of the season?
@ FSU had the chance to be the one this year, until we refused to reschedule a game in a Tropical Storm and then lost to Duke.

That's awesome, and I totally forgot that. Of course, I've worked hard to block the Bunting years forever from my mind, so I'm guessing that's why...
Gio's return-to-the-house was in the Top 5 for just sheer incrediblnicity.
"SEVENTY-THREE YARDS! NO FLAGS!"

No doubt. Mick was great as color man with Woody. As play by play for the Panthers... Meh, he's ok.
It set a record for number of wins in a season didn't it? Like you said, our history isn't exactly full of meaningful games. That's the best I could come up with off the top of my head.
They totally destroyed VT, too. What was it, 45-3? That team was a beast. I just wish they could have beaten FSU.
A game that I enjoyed a lot was the '10 Music City Bowl . . not our greatest win, but very satisfying.
I thought of that one, too! Yates frustrated me more times than not, but that was an epic game.A game that I enjoyed a lot was the '10 Music City Bowl . . not our greatest win, but very satisfying.
