The North Carolina running backs say that they are catching the ball 40 percent of the time and running it 60 percent of the time. Michael Carter smiled, "Running backs, when we go home, we work on catching the ball, too." Carter, who averaged seven yards a carry and just shy of 600 yards last fall, says Tar Heel fans can expect more wins this season. (WRAL Sports Fan)
