State just did everything it could to give SU the game, but thanks to a 3rd string fresh qb (whose going to be really good eventually) who threw a pick 6 and fumbled to give State a possession that would eventually score on a short field.
How uncharacteristic it was for state to get penalized to keep beating itself. It got a little help from SU penties to balance it. But wow. What an ugly win. A bowl game is definitely possible!!
The O got in a rut after the first quarter and never really recovered sans the help from SU which is very concerning.
However, if state and UNC continue on their current trajectories, this could make for a happy ending. Saw a lot of learning experiences for this young team and hopefully a W on an otherwise ugly game will breed more Ws due to confidence/motivation.
