Carolina's football program has been blessed with a handful of terrific one-two backfield punches over the years—among them Mike Voight and James Betterson in 1974-75, Kelvin Bryant and Amos Lawrence in 1980, Tyrone Anthony and Ethan Horton in 1983, Leon and Curtis Johnson in 1993-94 and Elijah Hood and T.J. Logan in 2015.
On Saturday we witnessed together for the final time on the turf in Kenan Stadium another prodigious tandem—Michael Carter and Javonte Williams. Carter, a senior from Navarre, Fla., has certainly played his last game in Chapel Hill as the Tar Heels wind their way to a season finale at Miami and a potential bowl berth.
