Feeling picked on? UNC leads country in INTs

Posted Oct 7, 2008
The simple explanation as to why North Carolina leads the country in interceptions was offered by linebacker Mark Paschal shortly after the Tar Heels picked off three Connecticut passes in their 38-12 win over the Huskies on Saturday. "I think the biggest thing with that is you just have to catch the ones they throw at you," said Paschal, who stepped in front of a Zach Frazer pass Saturday and didn't drop it. (Durham Herald-Sun)
