The Duke’s Mayo Bowl marked the fourth game this season that North Carolina fell behind by double digits. Defensively, the Tar Heels gave up a pair of 60-plus yard touchdowns to tight end Jaheim Bell. Those Bell touchdown receptions began a trend of big plays allowed by the Tar Heels. South Carolina totaled eight plays of more than 20 yards. (MSN.com)
