NC State will play #19 Texas A&M in the TaxSlayer Gator Bowl next Monday, December 31, at 7:30pm, marking the 5th consecutive year the Wolfpack have gone to a bowl game.
The 5-year bowl streak is the 2nd longest in school history, trailing behind 7 years of consecutive bowl games between 1988-1994. During that 7-year span, NC State had 2 different head coaches at the helm (Dick Sheridan & Mike O’Cain).
Dave Doeren is tied with Dick Sheridan for the longest bowl streak by a head coach in school history.
