NC State figures it out and beats UConn, 24-14
NC State spent a complicated evening slowly beating UConn at football, and while I don’t think that’s a great use of time, it certainly is one. NC State’s improvement offensively made the difference in this one, and established that it’s a new year.
Well, we hope.
NC State scored a touchdown on its first offensive drive, moving it right on down the field to answer UConn’s score; but after that? Well. There was some purgatory time. Do we necessarily hate purgatory time? We do not.
Because that generally means that the defense is cooking, and again all of this took time—including the cooking—but it did, as usual, work out.
