Four NC State players earned league honors from the ACC this week for their performances over the weekend: Isaiah Moore, Aydan White, Daniel Joseph, and Bam Knight. It’s no coincidence that three of the four play defense.
Moore, of course, delivered the big safety in the second half that helped turn the tide. White nabbed one of three interceptions for the defense, and Joseph accounted for 1.5 sacks.
Malik Willis’ game logs really drive home how well NC State played defensively against him:

Just his second clunker of the year and his worst performance in terms of ball security.
