Turner's Take: Mister Switzer

Posted Nov 16, 2013
Ryan Switzer’s second touchdown return went in the scorebook at 61 yards, but he ran a lot farther than than, pirouetting through defenders, stepping out of tackles and stopping and going before bouncing out and giving the Tar Heels the game-winning score. “I just tried to make a play for my team, and that’s what happened,” he said. With that play, Switzer set a pair of school records. (GoHeels.com)
