NC State vs. Wake Forest: By the Numbers
No comments
NC State is about to kickoff against their most historical foe. NC State and Wake Forest started off this rivalry back in 1895 in a game that must have been a thriller to watch, ending in a 4-4 tie (sarcasm intended). Today’s match-up is the 103rd time that these two in-state rivals have faced off. Throughout 114 years of playing one another, NC State has won over half of the games. In a world of ‘What have you done for me lately?’ these two have split the last 10 match-ups right down the middle, winning 5 apiece. The Wolfpack will...
NC State vs. Pitt By The Numbers
No comments
When NC State takes the field against Pitt today at 3:30, they will be looking to turn the tide in what has historically been a match-up that has gone in Pitt’s favor. Coming into today’s game, Pittsburgh has claimed 5 of the 8 games that the two teams have played. With that being said, the Wolfpack has never let the Panthers come to Raleigh and leave victorious (1-0-1). NC State has a lot to prove and defend today against Pitt in a day that has messy smashmouth football in the forecast. NC State vs. Pittsburgh: Series Record Overall: 2-5-1 Home:...

Tonight’s match-up versus South Carolina is not only a chance for the Pack to start the season off with a win on national television, it’s also a chance to settle the score with one of NC State’s oldest foes. NC State and South Carolina have been battling it out since 1900, and whoever wins the game tonight will take the lead in the series. Currently the record between the two schools sits at 26-26-4. Home field advantage has typically been a strong point for the Pack against the Gamecocks, but season openers also happen to be a strong point for...

NC State Rides Wood in Victory Over Wake 87-76

NC State 87 – Wake Forest 76 Boxscore  GAME RECAP NC State used a red hot Scott Wood (23 points) and solid performances from the rest of their starting five to out-gun the Demon Deacons 87.76. It was a true game of runs with Wake striking first thanks to Chase Fischer and Travis McKie doing damage early , but NC State stormed back using Woods hot hand. That had the Pack in it midway through the second half, but it wasn’t until late in the first that State really made their move and it wasn’t until midway through the second that they really got out to a sizable lead. State managed just 2 points off their bench and finished with a close rebounding margain but got very solid play from all 5 of their starters, limited the turnovers and got out on the break where they can be devastating. KEY STATS Wake played well tonight. They shot 50% from the field, 58% from 3 was only out-rebounded by three, but it wasn’t enough as State racked up 19 assists to only 9 turnovers as a team and turned that into 19 fast break points (to Wake’s 4). Player wise you have to look…
