Saturday’s 31-13 loss to Florida State was a pretty comprehensive exhibit of this year’s Wolfpack and all of its shortcomings. Might as well start from the top.
The quarterback thing did the thing and whatnot
I thought Bailey Hockman played admirably, even if “admirably” doesn’t quite get to be a synonym for “well.” The redshirt sophomore was pretty clearly more accurate down the field than the guy he replaced. The threat of a big play at least existed, even if it never actually happened. Most people would draw the conclusion that Hockman needs to be ahead of McKay on the depth chart, and I think I would agree with that, but there are a few caveats here.
