There is a lingering question out there of “why does the Pack’s secondary seem to be terrible every year?” and that is a perfectly valid thing to ask. Right now, NC State is ranked 128 out of 129 teams in passing yards given up per game (305.3). They were ranked 97th in the country in 2017 (245.0 ypg), and 93rd in 2016 (251.3 ypg). However, in 2015 they were ranked 22nd (188.5 ypg), 28th in 2014 (197.5 ypg), and 47th in 2013 (219.3 ypg). So what is going on?
