Initial Thoughts and Reactions to NC State’s Loss at Duke

Alright, this is always risky. Publishing words after going through the emotional turmoil of watching a dismal NC State performance is always risky.

NC State lost to #17 Duke 24-3 on the road tonight. The Wolfpack were 4-point underdogs, despite the fact that Blue Devils’ starting Quarterback Riley Leonard was out. Coming into the game, the feeling was NC State had a shot in this one. 4 of the 5 fellas at College Gameday picked the Wolfpack over the Blue Devils.

After NC State picked off Henry Belin IV on the opening drive of the game, and Brayden Narveson set a new NC State record, with a 57-yard field goal, things were looking up.
