Heels win by a Little

Posted Nov 25, 2007

Greg Little had already shown that he was a willing workhorse, running hard in the afternoon and on into the darkness of Saturday night. But it was overtime, and North Carolina still needed more from its versatile freshman. So the converted tailback, "sucking air" but determined to "dig down deep," answered the call one last time, darting 25 yards for the decisive touchdown in the Tar Heels' 20-14 OT triumph over rival Duke.
