You catch the attention of the entire nation when you call out one of the leading defenses in the country. Even after freshman quarterback Tyler Van Dyke and the Hurricanes amassed 31 points vs. the wolfpack defense, NC State is still allowing only 16.7 points a game.
Van Dyke was 25-33 for 325 yards four touchdowns with zero interceptions. So what happened? TVD found his confidence early is what happened. The gunslinger was looking off safeties, finding the mismatches and throwing with as much arm confidence as you will see from a young quarterback.
The Hurricanes also figured out that protection is paramount.
