NC State saved its top 25 ranking by winning a tough road game at Notre Dame. The Irish fell to 1-4 in conference play, losing their 7th game of the year, but that doesn’t mean they will be an easy win for any road team. The Wolfpack needed to bring every ounce of intensity to go get that ice cream.
The Pack fell 4 spots to #21 in the Week 12 AP poll. Splitting their games in each of the last two weeks has had the team see their ranking slide from #15 a few weeks ago. They are keeping pace with the rest of the ACC, now sitting at 3-2 and one game back of first place.
