Dave Doeren’s Presser After Pitt: Bulleted

If you want to watch NC State head coach Dave Doeren’s press conference after Pitt in full form, you can do so here, but if your just looking for the main points, look no further

• Pitt battled
• They tried to get outside of our Defense, which we haven’t seen much of
•  Called out the dropped passes. Things they would’ve scored on the opening drive had they done so.
•  Proud of the big catches that Kelvin Harmon and CJ Riley made.
•  Proud of the second half and the adjustments they made.
• Nyheim Hines was exceptional. The guys that block for him on that punt return should all receive gold stars. Played his butt off.
• Told the guys they are in the drivers seat. The goal is to stay there.
• Next week won’t talk much about Norte Dame.  Will dissect the first 7 games.
•  Won’t be reevaluating the place kicker position. Carson Wise still has the job.
• Darian Roseboro received the game ball in the locker room.
•  Didn’t get any help from the officials today. None.
• Assistants came in at halftime and showed mistakes. Players knew they were making mistakes. Nothing magical. Reminded who we are. Took ownership. Didn’t come here to lose.
