Week 1 Football: What to Watch

Game week for the Wolfpack is finally here and it starts off with a road trip to long-time in-state rival East Carolina. Greenville is going to be hot and it’s going to be rocking.

But let’s not get ahead of ourselves just yet - there are two days worth of games before we get to that Saturday noon kick.

Thursday night features a couple of ACC teams playing, with the key game that night being defending ACC champion Pittsburgh hosting their own long-time rival in West Virginia. There have been 93 games played in that series (Pitt leads 55-35-3), but the two haven’t played each other since 2011.
