Dave Doeren was asked after practice Thursday what he’d like to see more from his defenses, and he didn’t hesitate in saying he wants his back seven to be more disruptive.
“We want more interceptions, I think that’s the biggest area, to create more plays like that. We’ve done a nice job stopping the run and we’ve done a nice job creating fumbles.”
NC State finished last season with 14 picks, which ranked 32nd nationally. NC State forced seven fumbles all year, which ranked 102nd. But hey—who has the stat sheet handy all the time?
