ProFootballFocus released their Week 6 All-ACC Teams, and 6 NC State players were honored. That’s the most Wolfpack players that have made the team all season. The previous high was 5 in Week 5.

Ryan Finley threw 2 interceptions, and still managed to be the highest graded quarterback in the ACC by over 10 points. He was 25 of 34 (73.5%) for 308 yards and 2 touchdowns. This is Finley’s second time on the PFF ACC Team of the Week in 2018.

Wide Receiver Kelvin Harmon had 9 receptions for 128 yards and a touchdown against the Golden Eagles. The 9 receptions were a season-high, and he caught a touchdown for the 2nd straight week. Harmon has crossed the century-mark in 3 of the 5 games NC State has played in 2018.

Wide Receiver Jakobi Meyers snagged 10 receptions for 99 yards and a touchdown. He was targeted 10 times, making the catch every single time. This is Meyers’ second time on the PFF ACC Team of the Week in 2018.

Offensive Guard Terronne Prescod has made the PFF ACC Team of the Week four out of five times thus far in 2018, and Center Garrett Bradbury has made it three times. The Band of Brothers propelled the Wolfpack running attack to rush for 225 yards (4.3 yards per carry), and didn’t allow Finley to be sacked for the second straight week, and third time all season.

Linebacker Germaine Pratt not only made the PFF ACC Team of the Week, but also made the National Team of the Week. Pratt had 13 tackles, 1.5 tackles for loss, 1 sack and 1 fumble forced that he also recovered.

NC State offered Interior Offensive Lineman D’Angalo Titialii (6’2″/320) today. After entering the Portal, the Wolfpack were the first to offer him.

Titialii spent his first three seasons at Portland State, which competes in the FCS. This year, he was the starting Center for the Vikings, and the year before he was their starting Left Guard. Over three seasons, Titialii started in 28 of the 32 games he played in.

Titialii is an intriguing prospect, considering he can play numerous positions on the Offensive Line.

After Elinus Noel III (6’2″/230) entered the Transfer Portal yesterday, it didn’t take long for NC State to extend an offer.

He also has picked up offers from Baylor and Temple.

Noel III played last year at Texas Southern, which is in the FCS. As a Junior, he had 52 tackles, 7.5 tackles for loss and 3.5 sacks in 10 games.

Prior to Texas Southern, Noel III spent his first two seasons at Nicholls State, where he recorded a total of 53 tackles.

247Sports ranked him as a 3-Star prospect in the 2021 recruiting class out of New Orleans (LA).

Noel III has 1 year of eligibility remaining.

With Nick Campbell entering the Transfer Portal, NC State is in the hunt for some depth at Nose Tackle. Even if the staff were to feel confident with what they have in JR Brandon Cleveland and RS-SODJ Jackson, the Wolfpack is in need of depth at the position.

WATCH: In NC State’s Spring Game, Tight End Justin Joly Showed He is Going to Be Trouble for Opposing Defenses in ’24

It was evident NC State Tight End Justin Joly (6’3″/235) is going to be a problem for opposing defenses after his performance in the 2024 Spring Game a few weeks back. He is an extremely athletic Tight End, but he’s also bigger and more physical than I expected.

According to my calculations, Joly had 3 receptions for 56 yards and a touchdown. He started things off with a 3-yard touchdown in the corner of the end zone. He followed that up with a 16 yard catch across the middle through contact. Finally, Joly was the recipient of a double-reverse flea flicker, from RB Demarcus Jones II to WR Kevin Concepcion to QB Grayson McCall to him, for a 37-yard gain.

Joly transferred to NC State this offseason from UCONN, and he was the #2 Tight End in the Transfer Portal according to ON3. He had an incredible Sophomore campaign this past year, catching 56 passes for 578 yards and 2 touchdowns. Joly had 4 receptions for 38 yards in the season opener against the Wolfpack.
