#18 NC State had a chance to win 10 games for the 2nd time in school history tonight, but fell short, losing to #25 Kansas State 19-28.
Where did it go wrong?
The Wolfpack allowed the Wildcats to rush for 258 yards, which is the most an opponent has rushed against them all season. Sophomore DJ Giddens was a workhorse, rushing the ball 28 times for 152 yards and a touchdown. He also had a 37 yard touchdown reception.
Stopping the run is what Tony Gibson defenses do. Not tonight.
Also, to start the game, the play calling looked more like the play calling in the season opener against UCONN, and not the regular season finale against UNC.
