NC State Lands at #19 in CFP Top-25 After UNC Win

The College Football Playoff Top-25 was just released, and NC State moved up three spots, landing at #19 after defeating UNC 39-20 this past Saturday night.

Louisville fell spots to #14 after losing to Kentucky this past weekend in a rivalry game. There was a chance that if Louisville took a dramatic fall after falling to the Wildcats, and got destroyed by FSU in the ACC Championship game this Saturday, NC State could possibly finish higher in the final CFP rankings, securing a trip to the Orange Bowl. Is that chance gone? We’ll find out Sunday.

What an incredible story this 2023 football season has been. Wolfpack fans should be extremely proud of the coaches and players for the job they did this year. On a couple of occasions, this team seemed dead in the water, but the coaches and players didn’t give up, and finished the regular season ranked 19th in the CFP Poll. Incredible.
