Running game emerging for Tar Heels

Posted Oct 5, 2010
After relying on its passing game behind quarterback T.J. Yates for the first three games, North Carolina banked on its running attack in the 42-17 victory over East Carolina. North Carolina had two backs rush for more than 100 yards each in a game for the first time since 2004. It's the first time since 1993 that two Carolina backs have topped the 130-yard mark rushing.
