You can't ask for a better start to a game than the one North Carolina quarterback Marquise Williams had versus archrival Duke.
First, Williams threw an 89-yard touchdown pass on a flea-flicker to Ryan Switzer on the Tar Heels first offensive possession of the game. Then, Williams scrambled for a four-yard touchdown run to take a 14-3 lead over the Blue Devils in their ACC Coastal Division showdown.
