NC State Survives An Ugly Battle, Beats BC 17-14

Welp.

It was far from pretty, but who freaking cares?!?

NC State beat Boston College on the road 17-14 today to improve to 7-3 overall and 5-1 in the ACC. They are only the 16th Wolfpack team to rack up 5 ACC wins in a season.

Coming into today, the Wolfpack was only 2-6 in Boston. Chestnut Hill has been NC State’s kryptonite through the years, but today’s narrative had a different conclusion.

This game shouldn’t have been a 3-point game. Kyle Bambard missed 3 field goals. NC State Offensive Coordinator Eliah Drinkwitz called a strangely timed backwards pass from Jaylen Samuels out of the Wildcat to Ryan Finley that went wonky and resulted in a turnover, giving Boston College the lead in the 3rd Quarter.
