RALEIGH, N.C. -- There may be no bigger fan of Pac-12 After Dark than NC State running back Nyheim Hines, who never wants to miss a chance to watch his pal Bryce Love play on the other side of the country. He said he's routinely still up at 2 a.m., catching the final moments of Stanford's action.
The two track stars-turned-tailbacks may not see much of each other these days, but the time zones allow them to watch the other's games, and they text or call all the time to compare notes.
"We go way, way, way, way back," Love said.
