NC State tweaking spring game format in 2017

NC State’s spring games have been pretty standard exhibition contests during Dave Doeren’s tenure in Raleigh, but that will change a bit this year. Doeren was on the David Glenn Show on Tuesday to discuss Saturday’s game and mentioned that the fourth quarter will be a freshman-only scrimmage.

Doeren: We know what several of our key players can do, so 3/4 of the game is going to be competitive and contact-oriented but scripted.

Doeren: The 4th quarter on Saturday, we're going to let our freshmen play in a full-on scrimmage.
