N.C. State’s offense this season is going to look a lot like it did last season.

Same coordinator, same quarterback, mostly the same line and receivers (plus Jaylen Samuels). There will be one major difference: no more Matt Dayes.

Dayes ran for 1,166 yards, caught 32 passes and scored 10 touchdowns in 2016. Florida State’s Dalvin Cook was the only running back in the ACC with a higher usage rate than Dayes.

“Matt did a lot of things for us,” junior Nyheim Hines said.
