NC State football is now 41-19 in season openers since the ACC’s inception some 60 years ago. Coach Doeren’s win over Troy advanced him to 3-0 in openers with the Pack and 4-1 in openers in his career when you include Northern Illinois’ loss against Iowa in 2012. It is interesting to consider some of […]
Today, there are 11 days until NC State kicks off their 2015 campaign against the Troy Trojans at Carter-Finley Stadium. In anticipation of the season, one in which measured optimism is everywhere in regards to the Pack, I thought it would be cool to look back at some of the most memorable non-conference games that […]

This article discusses the last ten years between State and Wake, and that house of horrors. This Saturday, Dave Doeren’s first Wolfpack team leaves the friendly confines […]
The past decade against Clemson has not been pretty. In fact, it seems that most matchups have been one sided with the Pack on the wrong side of the final score. When I think of Clemson, I think of a team, like Maryland, which has been a thorn in the Pack’s side. Is this really […]
As we get closer to Saturday’s game against UNC-Chapel Hill, let’s first take a step back and look back at some of the previous games in the rivalry.

Today’s 34-0 loss to Florida State was the 3rd time NC State has been shutout under Tom O’Brien. State was also shutout in back-to-back games, the opening game of the 2008 season 34-0 to South Carolina and the season finale in 2007 was a 37-0 loss to Maryland. I’m sure you’ve noticed that all 3 […]
