Senior defensive tackle Tim Jackson doesn't like to linger in the past. And after taking one step forward defensively at Georgia Tech, followed by two big steps back last weekend against ECU, the UNC football team is looking to start fresh. "We made our corrections on Sunday, and everybody's giving a little extra effort, and really just putting all our focus on the next matchup against Virginia Tech," Jackson said. (GoHeels.com)
