Murray State ready for its close-up against North Carolina

It's Murray State, a school of 10,000 students tucked near a pair of lakes 8 miles from the Tennessee border and light years from the national spotlight. How anonymous are the Racers? Their most famous player, Ron Jones, is best known for his adopted first name, Popeye. (Charlotte Observer)
