today is North Carolina State and North Carolina NC State has picked this day to officially celebrate 100 consecutive years of football there been a lot of great players who have made up that rich Wolfpack tradition over the last 100 years you know the game has changed a lot since that first day and that first team but one thing has remained the same and that is that Wolfpack football has provided plenty of excitement for its fans the date was March 12th 1892 when North Carolina State bid known as the North Carolina school of agriculture and mechanical arts began 100 years of Wolfpack excitement as the Aggies played and won their very first football game in school history since then there have been many changes in Wolfpack football and in the sport itself in 1892 touchdowns only counted five points and the first school colors were Believe It or Not peeked and blew the average team weight was only 125 pounds and since then there have been 30 different head coaches written in the Wolfpack history books in 1910 the A&M Aggies defeated BPI five to three what was then called the greatest game ever played in the south has created enough excitement to establish a $2 season ticket fee for the four home games played in the 1911 season North Carolina AM won the South Atlantic championship in 1910 1913 and 1919 which began the winning road to success for North Carolina State Wolfpack football Roman Gabriel was just one of many great athletes to wear the red and white at the Wolfpack of North Carolina State Gabriel's number 18 has been retired it was a great quarterback in the early 60s on ACC Player of the Year twice two other players have had their jerseys retired here at North Carolina State number 51 Jim Richter a great center and Ted Brown number 23 what a running back he was in the mid seventies other great names the Bucky twins stand Fritz willy burden a super running back there been some great coaches here to Earl Edwards for 17 years Lou Holtz Bo Ryan but now it's the Dick Sheridan era and that tradition of excellence continues to roll the past 100 years of North Carolina State football has brought on all the excitement that a fan could dream of there were historical moments in the early years such as tackle John riffle going down as the first state Walter Camp all-american but unlike the good old days it's time to throw into those guards and strap on the helmet it's time for Wolfpack 20th century football [Music] [Applause] [Applause] [Music] North Carolina State is down those four it's devastating hits and quickness unlike the year 1890 to these players have speed and they weigh up to 285 pounds the style of football that keeps fans howling for more one of the most exciting moments was in 1986 with Danny people thought this almarri pass from Eric Cramer was no time on the clock to push state of the gamecocks 23 to 22 happy cat out the field because I was so winded from running around and jumping the motion is on beneath me that you dream about doing something like that all the time dick Sheridan the 30th head coach at NC State history has guided the Wolfpack to four bowl games in the last five years the 75 yard touchdown catch by danny peoples help the Wolfpack defeat Iowa 28 to 23 in the memorable 1988 Peach Bowl in the 1990 all-american ball the Wolfpack battled Southern Mississippi down to the wire another great moment in football history has States led to a 3127 victory many exciting moments and fill the Wolfpack memory book 100 years of excellence just the beginning of what's yet to come

Carolina we're just a couple of minutes away from kickoff of our X on ACC game of the week North Carolina and North Carolina State we think this matchup today is going to prove to be another great battle between two old rivals you know it's been a pretty successful season for Atlantic Coast Conference team so far we've still got four teams without a loss let's take a moment now and take you back one week and show you some highlights around the ACC Clemson South Carolina Memorial Stadium otherwise known as Death Valley and the Clemson Tigers ranked in the top ten showed why they're there 7 out of 12 for DeSean Cameron one touchdown this pass to Richard Smith good for six points for the Clemson Tigers there are a number of young players who are making their mark on this Clemson football team one of them on special teams Tim Jones number 56 comes up with a big flock here and a first down for the tiger offense there's a big stable of running backs for Clemson one of them is Rudy Harris breaks three tackles here on his way to the endzone for Clemson it was a great day for the orange they went at 37 to 7 it was a great night for the Duke offense against Colgate they were shiny and bright that often crushed by the Colgate defense Aaron Shaw on the receiving end of a David Brown pass Randy Cuthbert is still out one guy who's filling in fine is Leroy go man 81 yards this run for a Duke touchdown in six points the Blue Devil defense played well Saxe Jeff Smith on the sack here Dave Wavell right behind him but it was a costly night Scott Yeomans the nose guard lost for the season with a broken ankle final score 42 to 14 bird stadium College Park it's the Mountaineers and the Terrapins West Virginia and Maryland John Kaleo gets to start at quarterback he only completed one pass on the day but he made it cam Kaleo throws out in the flat to Ritchie Harris now watch Harris run 35 yards for a Maryland touchdown unfortunately this was the only time Maryland was able to make it in the end zone all day Adrian Merrill 141 yards rushing the lead West Virginia the air attack was awesome as well the final score 37 to 7 on the banks of the Hudson norman schwarzkopf on to inspire the army against North Carolina but the Tar Heels inspired by the return of natrone means 94 yards in a touchdown and a defense of Tommy Pigpen a big fourth down stop in the fourth quarter for the Tar Heels Chucky Burnett had a good day at quarterback here he connects with Corey holiday six point for North Carolina and a Tar Heel victory 20 to 12 the final score [Music] that brings us to our Lowe's play of the week watch quarterback Richard montcrief of Clemson he muffs the pitch out but on first bounce Rodney Blount comes up with it and turns it into positive yardage a big first down for the Clemson Tigers and Rodney bunnelby trying to make some plays like that a big game as we sat down in Clemson Clemson and Georgia Tech we'll be talking more about that as our show progresses Clemson playing their first ACC game today let's take a look at the standings you'll see that North Carolina State one of those teams that already has an ACC win Georgia Tech and Clemson again a big game Maryland with a win North Carolina playing its first game right here today Duke will be playing its first game against Virginia today Wake Forest tries to get back on a winning track at Northwestern and Virginia oh and two they've dug a hole for themselves early we've talked on this program a lot about the national recognition the ACC has achieved this year it's starting to show up in the polls let's take a look at the USA Today some of the teams are in the top 25 of course Florida State is number one then you've got Clemson also in the top five Georgia Tech and NC State are in the top 25 in the AP poll North Carolina showed up at number 23 this week you can't have great teams without great players let's take the time now and check out our ACC players of the week [Music] in North Carolina's big win over army center Randall Parsons open up the holes linebacker Tommy Pigpen shut him down what a game quarterback Shawn Jones had leading Georgia Tech to a victory over Virginia and how about kevin peoples on defense 12 tackles one tackle for a loss Bobby Goodman saw a nightmare when he saw number 46 but people's is out of today's game against Clemson Jimmy Lincoln is the Rookie of the Week he set a Georgia Tech freshman rushing record with 229 yards there's still a lot more to come on ACC football today we'll be talking with our game announcer Steve Martin at Jack Corrigan and we're gonna be talking defense so hang around we'll be right back like hog would back with you on ACC football today you're looking at what is soon to be a packed house here at carter-finley Stadium as we get ready for North Carolina and North Carolina State you know we often talk about the offensive stars around the league and what they mean to their teams but the coaches will tell you the games are won on defense let's take a look at some of the league's defensive leaders and we'll start out with the leading tackler that's Tommy Thigpen of North Carolina followed up by Mike jurmala which another great linebacker he is from Maryland and as we move on through our defensive statistics quarterback sacks with DeMarco Coleman and Coleman Rudolph of Georgia Tech they are having great seasons Coleman and Rudolph continue to lead the tackle for loss column Wayne Simmons and Rob Bodine of Clemson that should be a great matchup as the defenses get ready for that game well the defenses are ready for this game so our game announcers and let's talk defense with them Steve Martin and Jack Corrigan gentlemen how about the defenses for today's game I think the defenses for today's games especially North Carolina there's been a story all throughout the preseason sit not so much Jack who's here but who isn't here and North Carolina has got a big gap in the middle side well Dwight Hollyer their all-conference linebacker and quite clearly the heart and soul of that Carolina defense and offseason foot injury is still not back probably will not be back for a couple of more weeks so you can't ever overcome that kind of loss the problem gets complicated in that Tommy Thigpen has to do more things or different things I should say than he did previously as those numbers that Mike talked about showed he has had a great start to this 91 season but you just can't eliminate or can't overcome the loss of Holly but in the defensive secondary Carolina does have some experience to rely on and one guy in particular rondell Jones is going to be playing with the kind of a handicap today he broke a bone in his hand early in game at West Point last week yet you can see right there still had 12 tackles he's going to stay in the lineup cookie mass he may not start today because he's had an eye infection but he is part of that good solid secondary those guys have played for a couple of years and grown together they're very heady players back there Mack Brown very confident about what he has in the secondary now on the other side of the football not only is Mack Brown confident but Chucky Burnett's confident with the running backs if he's got behind him to help him move that offers well last year at this point when Carolina played NC State they really did not have a running game out of the tailback spot Randy Jordan is back and running well Nate roan means who's runner-up for ACC Rookie of the Year last series coming off an ankle injury and is pretty close to 100% I don't think he's all the way back yet but without question when you have means and Jordan able to run the ball effectively it takes so much pressure off of Chucky Burnett he is not forced to try and do more than he is capable of doing you know that Mack Brown wants to have tailbacks go because that's the way it is at Carolina yeah it certainly has been a tradition there and Mike Lockwood has got some special guests along with him when ACC football today continues from Raleigh right after this our heels look to end a three-game losing streak to the Wolfpack when they visit NC State in the Exxon ACC game of the week max kickoff for that game is just a couple of minutes away and as we told you today is a big celebration of 100 years of Wolfpack football that celebration began last night and it began in a very big way it was quite a celebration last night at the Raleigh Civic Center over 700 former players and alumni turned out to celebrate 100 years of Wolfpack football a lot of memories relived last night how the great players were in attendance like Ted Brown and Roman Gabriel all Americans who have had their jerseys retired they were signing some autographs class of 1941 was there reliving some memories they said it was just like a old class reunion and somehow those short runs turned into long wins and those losses maybe didn't seem so bad last night bill Yost and Fritz Don bucking some of the former wolf Packers their emcee for the event was Jerry punch he introduced dick Sheridan and the current North Carolina State coach presented a former coach Earl Edwards with a big award lot of awards were handed out last night gene Corrigan the Commissioner of the ACC was there that's Mike quick former receiver there was also a videotape presentation celebrating 100 years of North Carolina State football I'm joined now by a couple of guys you might recognize who know what this game is all about Ted Brown the great running back from the 70s and a guy who hit Ted Brown a couple of times buddy curry super linebacker for the North Carolina Tar Heels both guys went on to have great careers in the pros Ted what are your thoughts about NC State in North Carolina well it's thought of a very very big game you know and it's one of the biggest games of the year and it doesn't make a difference how well you do during the year you have to beat North Carolina if you beat Noah come out I tell you you've had a successful season that's what this game is all about it's about competition about playing your heart out it's about beating Carolina buddy curry when you were playing against North Carolina State I guess you were keying on red number 23 hunt ed Brown he was pretty tough to bring down honey yeah it was a matter of fact even in pros when we played Minnesota Vikings I was keen on Ted Brown so there was a lot of years of we keyed on how big was the state game for the Carolina Tar Heels well it's the time I played that was the biggest game of the year also and we started getting ready right after the game previous to that and just the intensity level and in the nervousness of the players going out on the field just made the this came the biggest you had a great interception in one of those games I believe those 1977 is that one of your big memories of college football yes it is that's that's one of the biggest memories because it was right down here on this field and I think it was like 37 yards i intercepted and ran it in and it really helped our team win and that was only time that we won what Walt it was here well Ted Brown had a game where he gained a 200 yards against North Carolina do you remember that day and how do you feel about that now as you look back on it I think it was probably one of the greatest performance that the opposing team feel you know I got agree was over at Chapel Hill when it happened and it felt really good it felt really good to win but I mean it was just all a great game and I have to mine blocking for me really well and and it all came together that particular day and I think we came with a game plan ready to play and coach Ryan got us ready to play and we did the job quick question for both you guys what are the players thinking right now is there just a few minutes away from picked off all I'm sure they got butterflies in their stomachs and and they're really nervous and the answers they're ready to get that first hit and once they get that and they'll be ready to go how about it buddy well it's that's exactly right you're anxious to get that first hit out of the wedding that kind of clears your the cobwebs from your head you know and then you can try straight on your silence all right guys thanks a lot for being with us two of the all-time greats buddy Curry and Ted Brown here on ACC football today we'll be back with a preview of that big game down in Death Valley clips in at Georgia Tech in just a minute back in carter-finley Stadium in Raleigh North Carolina fans and players are ready for today's big matchup between the Tar Heels and the Wolfpack that's not the only a CC game though let's take a look around the league of the other teams who were playing today Florida State number one in the nation in Michigan that's a big game Duke tries to stay unbeaten against Virginia Wake Forest tries to get back on a winning track and how about that game down in Death Valley Georgia Tech at Clemson for a report on that matchup let's go down to the tiger land and Bob Joo back when the Tigers hit the hill at Clemson they'll be determined to end Georgia Tech's Hex for the jackets or a the most recent team to beat Clemson that being last year and B the most recent team to beat Clemson at Death Valley a 30 14 win in 1989 so the Tigers want revenge has been hard no I just been waiting you know since we lost last year you know I gave everything I had on the field and I just been waiting at another crack at Georgia Tech and I'm you know it's here and I'm very excited about the ball game and I'm just anxious to get it underway clemson comes into a know but those wins came against vastly inferior opposition so personal feelings put aside the Clemson Tech winner not only advances in the ACC standings but as the Tigers are quite aware in the national polls too certainly we've got some teams that have played well in our conference and I think that for us to defeat those teams certainly it would help our national rankings so regional and national prestige is on the line today at Death Valley where Clemson hosts Georgia Tech at Clemson this is Bob Chu back for ACC football today all right thanks a lot Bob next Saturday we'll be right here in Raleigh North Carolina once again for ACC football today we'll see

Raleigh North Carolina site of today's ACC exon game of the week from JP sports North Carolina and North Carolina State jammed to the rafters when they get done counting heads will be some 53,000 on hand for this one good afternoon I'm Steve Martin along with Jack Corrigan in North Carolina North Carolina State it always conjures up some great feelings especially on the North Carolina side this year because for the first time in several years Jack they feel that they are coming in even with the NC State program they've made a lot of progress in terms of the depth of the Carolina program the last couple of years maybe best exemplified by junior quarterback Chucky Burnett he came in for the first time it is as a Carolina quarterback in this game a couple of years ago they did not have much of a running game they had all rookie receivers they had a tight end it was a former quarterback Burnett had a horrible day but now he is number one in the conference in passing efficiency they have a running behind him and Mack Brown doesn't have to ask him to do more than he has done in the past and because of that Carolina's offense is a lot more productive and of course his opposite number Terry Jordan it's been a crisis of confidence for him too and he's got his confidence at a very good level well a different path to the starting job Terry of course replacing Charles Davenport as a starting quarterback last year he has gotten better and better as it has gone along he has got lots of weapons around him they've got all those running backs they've got all those receivers and Terry does his job well you know a lot of young men make the decision early in their high school careers as to what school they're going to go to and the players that are involved in this game are no different Anthony Barbour has a unique story on how he decided to go to NC State when I was younger really wasn't that big of a football fans I was a basketball fan and I'd sit at home one night and I watched on state lose to Carolina basketball state had the game one thing was going like maybe 10 SEC's left Clyde Austin was drilling around someone stole the ball from from Carolina and dunker then won the game for them from that point on I just I just wanted to go to state up this dislike Carolina from that point on the testing lasted two years and yielded new gasoline's that are Tar Heels of North Carolina getting set to come onto the fields as we get set for the 81st renewal of this why for me right now let's head to the sidelines for a little bit of the flavor of this ballgame to Mike hog whoo well guys we've already seen the first tactical maneuver of the game Mack Brown these guys on the field to anther state got out here and you can hear already probably it's pretty partisan state crowd the guys here on this team they may say that it's not that bigger game right now you can bet that the butterflies are really flowing the crowd is already into this game in a big big way and because of that I think these players are really pumped up one thing you may want to look for are so nervous mistakes early in this game because these two ads going to take a couple of hits before they really get the butterflies out and it game this big well the guys are really pumped up and says this is a big game his wide receiver a senior for NC State here's Charles Davenport if you've been in North Carolina and you know the robber you can feel it I mean they don't care about any game but that one you can go one in ten as long as you be Carolina if your face worst we're shaving would be simple if your face were flat any razor would do but your face has curves need the revolutionary tracer the fruit the feelings are high is the NC State helmets are held high on their sideline there crowd dominates the scene here in Raleigh this is the 81st renewal North Carolina since 56 and actually since 53 when the ACC moved out of the Southern Conference that series has evened up quite a bit you see the home team Anacin had the best of luck the last times out and won their record is quite impressive there's Clint wolfy to kick off and he'll be kicking deep to anthony bar and he gone go ahead we're just about set [Applause] to [Applause] tackle made by Jimmy Hitchcock let's take a look at our true value starting lineup Terry Jordan we talked about a few moments ago Anthony Barbour and Greg Manor will get the starting calls at the running back spots but we will see as many as six different players maybe even as many as seven out of those two spots this offensive line well dick Sheridan thinks it might be the best one he's ever had here at NC State a Dale Harrison and GE on the right side have been a dominant group thus far for the defensive unit of North Carolina as they attend to the injured player down on the field gonna be Damian Covington Damian Covington is the guy who was down we will try and take a look at the defensive unit of North Carolina see watch Covington right there in the middle eating boom yet he took the worst of a blow from one of the men coming down Bernardo Harris a linebacker for Carolina the wedge blocker the wedge get it right there first and ten for NC their option to the second half the conditions here are just about perfect the wind is out of the Northeast minutes going over the top of the stadium today Terry Joy's bringing them out receivers up shanty the throw on first down completely [Applause] by Thomas Smith that's a completion of 11 yards defensively a good upfront group headed by Barker and Bolden Brown getting early action this afternoon they missed Whitehall year but - Thigpen Steinbach er and ferry probably the best group out of that defensive unit and a strong secondary as well rondell Jones playing with the broken hand as a soft pass than that nothing for NC State they're at their own 34 yard line here's Manor the full-back in the mail Austin Robbins to make the initial stop as he slipped over the 35-yard you will see north carolina state more often than not I'd say almost three out of four times when they run the ball they want to run it towards their tight end Todd Harrison North Carolina is aware of that as well and it's that battle of not only strategy but physical ability to see who's going to win that fight more often than none see how NC State disguises that tendency this afternoon on second and nine back to throw pass is incomplete nice coverage by thomas smith fine mike hog would guys the story on damon covington the freshman linebacker he just got his bell rung real good but right now it's clearing up a little and he does know what day it is and who north carolina states playing and that's a pretty good sign since the trainer I wonder if bell ringing is in a doctor's vocabulary or any other descriptions as well you can use we're treating him for third down [Applause] no score state first possession the past completion of those yards to pull back and he is nailed by Tommy big fan as soon as you got the ball roll off it was a good play call by the NC State offense Pattabhi Tommy thick bent watch the right side of your screen Pigpen sees the screen action and slices right through the attempted block of Mike G had thick been that bait that play there was room to run so it brings on the punting unit ten men on the line of scrimmage they're gonna give the Kilpatrick lots of people to look at that's a GILF African population there's Erich blunt [Applause] except you become one of the record-setting UNC eternal Puddle 48 yards in return North Carolina will set up as their offensive unit takes the field sucking brunette the junior out of Bo the starting fall at quarterback this year means in fulkerson good solid running backs York warmed the blocking type holiday they're pink Randall Parsons at center the best man I'm an experienced wine we'll see auntie Dinkin as the day goes along today North Carolina really nicked up in the game to DA me a week ago [Applause] really pressing on the play with John akin John Aikens had a super ball game a week ago against Wake Forest Carolina trying a little play action early on he wanted to go deep to Cori holiday but the pressure from Aikens right from the get-go forces Burnett to throw it away second down in 10 coming up for brunette it is on 31 yard line Fulkerson and ease of the setback shares may throw me [Applause] John Aikens as he gets out over the 34 yard line Mark Thomas Rickey logo and John Aikens have been probably better than expectations even the Carolina coaches commented on that Haynes leads an outstanding linebacking group we've talked about that secondary they have already picked off 10 passes in just three ball games turnover ratio is 17 to 4 plus 14 plus 13 is complete and that's going to be a critical play for North Carolina to execute this I tell you what they didn't get the spot that they thought they were going to get and he's going to be just shot right there little between [Applause] his six pitch already this thought when he fell forward he at the first down but where his backside hit was on the 41 yard line and that was shy of first down yardage Scott MacAllister never hit a putt under 40 yards last year he's one of the nation's leaders find the Lebel go into the Sun great tip backs him back to the line George what to learn get away from this stack 14 yard line it's a 49-yard kick in a six yard return and North Carolina will set up their second possession when we come back no score in Raleigh Steve Bartman along with Jack Corrigan and Mike Hogg wood and there's our Eric's on ACC game of the week so far no score early on with about four minutes gone in with Carolina State looking at first content second possession by Scott MacAllister at 51 Anthony barber the 21-yard line slips a few tackles makes a nice gain of five yards on the play before Bracy walker caught up with North Carolina trying to make a lot of last-second moves on their defensive front that time gambling or guessing that state was going to run to its left instead it ran to the right and they were a little out band on that side Walker had to come up from the secondary to make the hit Lawrence and drawings are the wide receivers and an ideal offensive coordinators Paul 75 [Applause] by jr. Bolden the middle guard who got across early we'll see what the officials say about this you look at Jordan series tell us what the penalty was and I think he's probably right [Applause] you have a dead ball foul encroachment on the defense so Charles Phillips squares it away and that will give North Carolina State I believe a first down that'll be very close to it that was just junior Bolden the junior out of Chapel Hill anticipating the snap down trying to be there as quickly as he could go too quick so it changes the first and ten now for North Carolina State the Wolfpack coming in here at three and OH with a conference victory under their belt over Wake Forest North Carolina tuinal both non-conference wins over Cincinnati and Army and George was completed 54 percent of his passes as part of it here is understand barber barber has Garda jump over the 35 yard line knocked down there by thick pen and Austin Robbins and let's go to the sidelines once again for Mike awkward guys the North Carolina coaches feel the key for Chuckie Burnett today is the big C word confidence even though North Carolina didn't get a first down Chucky did complete a pass and he threw it into a crowd he was also pressured on one play and he showed a lot of poise in the pocket they offered him a lot of congratulations when he came off and said hey Chucky good start don't worry about it it's that type of pass downfield vertically the Chucky has to execute for lunch Carolina the blue with the pole the south Carolina State let him have the sidelines all day here's Barbara on second down runs out of it back to the line of scrimmage Bolden is there to clean up several other people helped out Steinbach cookie massey also in on the play and jonathan perry as well cookie massey the strong safety hit rolled up into the slot and he causes some traffic problems and you saw the movement by tommy thick been as he scraped behind the defensive line sat right in the hole Anthony Barbour saw that forw and sky blue and said let me try another route and that one wasn't any better either loss of a body yard brings up third and if it's not a long time at six years [Music] [Applause] completed the 46 yard line Juan del Jones it's a gain of 17 yards as Terry Jordan searches down the middle you see Chad Santi the senior who has been out of the program for two years watch Jordan stay in against the pressure of Jonathan beri both crossing route beyond the linebackers and it's all timing and Terry Jordan had just enough time before he was wearing Jonathan Perry Chad Santee with four receptions two of them for touchdown first and ten on a state of their own 47 this Lita Davenport at 114 North Carolina territory at the 47 yard line Thomas Smith is on the tackle after the gain of six if you talk to any defensive coach in the Atlantic Coast Conference they tell you number seven worries that with the football as much as any receiver in the conference not so much how he runs routes or how he catches the ball but what he does with it after he catches him first time he touched the ball as a wide receiver it was a 60 yard touchdown against Clemson second down and about three and off doors to Boehner the fullback carries big pen along with him and also rondell Jones on the stop and it's another first down for North Carolina State six-yard gain on the play by mainland you want to talk about emotion in the way this games watch what happens to Terry Jordan here on the option boom Eric gash says that's as far as you were going to go fortunately for the state fans Jordan had already handed the ball off demeanor first and ten the North Carolina 40-yard line NC State [Applause] going barber falls as he gets the line of scrimmage that'll stop that play right there Austin Robert is covering on the playboy marker as well Anthony shaking his head state right here wants to do much of what they did last week against Wake Forest just grind away not only the clock but the physical toll on defense so that even if you're not scoring as many points in the first half you will of the second second dad at 11 [Applause] bounces into the ballgame he gets the bastards ugly play Thomas Smith well there's a situation where NC State got caught with a play that was fine in terms of its strategy but ill time in terms of who was in the ball game I had Gary downs in a tailback and really Chris Williams or Aubrey Shaw do a better job of catching the ball out of the backfield then do downs for Barbara and you see Lavelle George has come into the ball game as well as Sean George and excellent receiver [Applause] impatient is complete to Davenport at the 27-yard line great tips by Davenport 15 yards downfield Sean Crocker couple it looks very simple when you diagram it on a blackboard but this is a tough throw for a quarterback and that's just great extension by Charles Davenport to come up with the first down why is that such a hard play the quarterback has to throw it nearly 40 yards to get the 12 or 15 yards to get the first end big third the first conversion for North Carolina State they sit at the 27 yard line keyboards seekers shortened trips over barber as he was spreading out on play to the left side michael--ah talked early about emotional mistakes that's an emotional mistake right here Anthony Barbour and Jordan they're both so anxious to do something one of them didn't know what the play was Barbour was expecting a they play fake or get it get the ball off tackle Jordans already attacking the perimeter either one saw the other one fell arey Jordan no fire that emotional [Applause] on a day like today [Applause] 17-yard ran a safety blitz with cookie massey as well as eric gash coming out to play the one thing that state does not want to get into it on the last two sequences they goofed up on first down and put themselves at a third lawn on the other side Carol taul taur was the defensive coordinator for Carolinas and he was worried about state's ability to convert on third down and state's em all they liked to hold the plot for six or seven minutes we got a whistle North Carolina so with 612 left to go in the first quarter and no score we pause now for a word from your local station [Applause] [Music] we're back at carter-finley Stadium in Raleigh North Carolina no score North Carolina State facing a key third down third and 12 [Applause] [Music] intended for Aubrey Shaw over the middle that's going to bring out the field goal kicking unit Damon quickly back Brown sized a sigh of relief for his defense Mack decided to go with just a four-man rush and dropped seven into coverage and they tried to split the zone with Aubrey Shaw and you see precis Walker the strong safety actually had as good a shot at it as Sean did Jordan probably put a little too much gear under that attempt Damon Hartman will attempt to 46 yarder which would be as long as this season his longest however career-wise with a 56 yarder good eight cashes in on the long drive to take the lead three to nothing over North Carolina with six minutes left to go the first hurry to play drive kick as you looking part of the crowd of 15 history and here we are with nine minutes gone into first quarter Carolina has had the ball through just three plays and now they are down on the scoreboard it was not the scenario that Mack Brown wanted to start this ballgame which you see what Damon Hartman has meant to the Wolfpack in their fans in the games against North Carolina the most memorable one of course a year ago we will look at this Wolfpack team again next week here at Cardiff filling in a great game against Sean Jones in Coleman Rudolph Ben Marco Coleman and the rest of Georgia Tech next Saturday Wow the field goals have been less than successful with the movement of the goal posters into a narrower distance there you see what has happened so far this season of 40-plus yards two out of seven in the ACC 50-yard field goals are down and poised went after touchdowns for also down by four David Hartman Zoltan is this season was last week against wait for and there is blood of the cartoon the 27 yard line brought down by a host of defenders most prominently in there also was Keith battle who's done an outstanding job in specialty and coverage there's blah [Applause] and chunky Burnett taking field battle as seven special team so far this season first and ten North Carolina they ran play-action on first down last series let's see what they do here DJ Runyan is back there fullback [Applause] comes complete to book and blunt gain of about 11 mark commas has to come over and make the jackal standing play fake by Chucky brunette his problem was he almost gets Erich blunt convinced that he's going to run the ball one had oboes turned his head away from brunette but fortunately for Caroline I turned back and then took the short pass and added other half dozen yards too to be exact for blunt they like what he could do for example Joe the offensive golf or the Tarheels and II Dinkin and Ricki Shah the left guard and tackle respectively for Carolina I think it was a sweep left what do you think both start - they weren't past block and that's the shore they were hinging around the corner - hurry back Brown in his sports season here at North Carolina looking on he's seen his tune go one in ten twice and then six four and one a year ago there's Chuckie Burnett his first time on this stadium curve [Applause] three four 15 three interceptions [Applause] [Music] Bengston savage grabs him out of bounds at the 40-yard line it'll be a pickup of about five on the play Jordan brings an element to the Carolina attack that they sorely missed last year when he got hurt in the preseason you see Sebastian the savage there who made the stuff Jordan was a state champion in high school in the hundred the 200 he's run of ten 400 meters in his high school track career he has that ability to just outrun the coverage of the secondary try and stop this week Jordan gives you the speed means get to the power second down and five for North Carolina here's Burnett same play as the first down play this time it doesn't work his black can't get to the ball thrown behind him it didn't work as well because Mark Thomas the defensive lineman when outside contain that time stayed home a little bit more Burnett was not able to challenge the line of scrimmage on his rollout and to get rid of the ball more quickly and didn't deliver the strike he wanted to deploy and Tyler launched where it's covering on the play he'll have himself a day trying to chase Erick huge crowd third and 10 now go upstairs it is for side hovering on the plate Dewayne Washington and the appreciative NC State crowd watches what Carolina move it's punting unit onto the field well that offsides are that false start penalty on first down really hurt North Carolina on that sequence NC State defense yet to give up a touchdown this year they've only given up one field goal over the first string here's McAlister fake rush is all [Applause] George will get away from the kicker at least try to now the question is referee Charles Phillips will he call this the 5-yard running into the kicker or the 15-yard roughing the kicker that will determine whether or not Carolina will have to do it again it's the five-yard penalty if I read Charles signals properly [Applause] and today frost would have blocked into him in Jannah war was there as well great Gianna Molla McAlister got off a 44-yard punt jacket took a North Carolina bounce and I think Kerala is good the client five yards the penalty is declined it'll be first down he'll take the 44 yarder in the position of the football at the 16 yard line of NC State similar territory from where state for over while ago NC State leading Carolina by three declining real estate Exxon ACC game of the week JP sports bringing it to you North Carolina State leading North Carolina three to nothing Steve Martin cat core gonna fight off with obscene boy there's back Brown his defense has held so far he has to do so again against Terry Jordan dick Sheridan looking on Jordan completed five out of nine passes three of them the Charles Davenport first round play goes to Greg Manor light up the middle of the line it's going to be up there for about two yards off to the 18 yard line Florida State Michigan playing in the big battle and boy Bobby fountain Seminoles fake field goal he had to expect something Bobby Bowden has board trick plays than any coach in college football we're saying they execute them and teach them well they're expected it's not something they thought of last minute second and seven for NC State handoff goes to Gary down Gary sighs to Mike G over the 20 yard line gets up to the 22 tackle on the play by Curt brown also Tommy Thigpen around the ball which we would have met okay so now we get into that third and medium situation third for Carl tour boys said two things his defense asked to do stop the third down consistency of state and try and force turnovers have not done it as much as they want to with the Carolina defense Rodell George is in the backfield you would anticipate pass [Applause] causes shortened up a down right after a sack he was looking up Adele George all the way he was looking at George to his right he's got Williams curling out of the backfield to his left but you see right there he had locked in and sometimes that's where a young quarterback gets caught he was zoned in on Liddell Jordan when he didn't have anybody else there was no place to go awesome five on the flavourings Phil Patrick onto the field to punted away on fourth of nine waters back deep Carolina setting up a return [Applause] thirty-six play upfield ball out to the 43 yard line it's a 47-yard punt and an 80 yard return the tackle made on the play by an eighth Neal our but let's see what the flag is all about back at the North Carolina State 43 yard line it may go against North Carolina State they're going to call from what town Harrison indicated they're going to call holding against NC State which would be defensive holding because the ball was in the air and actually the possession had already been exchanged when the flag came down Charles Phillips looking for further consultation we have holding on the kicking team so there's the call and now North Carolina will discuss the opportunity and the options that are presented to them here they have the ball right now at about the 40-yard line close to it conceive Mack Brown's indication he wants them to kick it again so I'd get I'm guessing the officials were saying that be holding infraction took place before the exchange of possession with Dixie Ayrton wants to find out we have holding all the defense during the TIC time they will be half the distance to the goal line and we'll pick again all right so back Brown looking for even better field position for his offense and Kilpatrick laughter gone one more time stay tuned at the conclusion of today's game will be selecting a ship most valuable player from each of our teams involved today and there's Kilpatrick March is out there with a 40 yard average his longest route this year has been 52 yards and he'll be called upon to do it this time from the end zone once standing at his own 45 yard line Carolina last time set up a return they have 10 min up they still think they have the [Applause] [Music] to the 46 yard line [Applause] here for North Carolina there at the NC State 46 yard line it's a 45 yard kick by Kilpatrick a 7 yard return by Erich blunt shad Santee comes up on the special teams worth to make the tackle 3 nothing NC State on top with Carolina on the Wolfpack side of the 50 yard line for the first time good call by Mack Brown they ended up getting about 10 yards out of that exchange because of the penalty against NC State 54,000 fans looking on chutney Burnett the best field position of the dog that's his way to the North Carolina State 39 yard line Tyler Lawrence had to wrestle him down there along with Mark Thomas a gain of seven little inside trap play behind the block and left guard Andy Dinkin and make that James demo track as he made the block he was in it left guard guru just inside trampin most effective gain of seven second and three by David Marit Marit made the first stop Aikens cleaned it up but means paid for that one no gain on the flow what's the acceleration to the ball by David Merritt boom Rickey logo was also there as well merit coming underneath the play just exploded into means third down three [Music] [Applause] in short I've been short by bodyguard more than that by the spot he's going to be short by about a yard and a half logo and Thomas in there on the tackle for North Carolina State and the punting unit is on Alastor is on the field as the NC State defense first in defense against scoring third versus the pass fourth and total de these are national lengths [Applause] it's gonna be close it is gonna snapped it to the up fan [Applause] it was the second hit by a belief Sebastian Savage and let's see if we can they snap it to the up man Gracie Walker Tyler Lawrence plates the blockers up and savage right there Meerut and billy ray Haynes with the stop the question is how close he is and he is very close and Billy Ray is injured again he's got that bad ankle that would be another serious blow to NC State it means cannot come back this is gonna be [Applause] so mack brown forsakes defensive field position to try to keep a drive moving let's see how the gamble paid off [Applause] [Music] [Applause] North Carolina State in their own 36 yard line well I saw NC State play Kent State a couple of weeks ago Lee of course broadcast last week's game with Wake Forest I don't think I've seen a secondary that hits harder than the NC State defensive [Applause] Georgina antennas downs as his tail dog [Applause] we could go again [Applause] gain of 11 there you see some of the numbers that Steve Martin was talking about where is he state ranks defensively in the country this year and they've done little in this first quarter to diminish that reputation at all now their offense on the field [Applause] over the 50-yard line of the 40 minutes go back to the previous play in which they picked up the first down that might have been the last play of the first quarter but I like the idea of Ted Kay in the offensive coordinator and dick Sheridan I like it when coaches after a big play go after a lot of yardage on the very next play it paid off for their back on the Carolina side of the 50 gut Carolina state leading as we complete one hurry to play three nothing over North Carolina welcome back to Carter Finley Stadium in Raleigh North Carolina Steve Martin Jack Corrigan and Mike Hogg would on site for you Damon Hartman's 46 yard field goal the only thing on the scoreboard here as we take the turn into the second quarter NC State nothing it's on first down down up over the 48-yard line that's a second down play and seven North Carolina State let's go to the sidelines now my father guys bad news about Billy ray Haynes he re-entered the foot that he hurt last week against Wake Forest the medical doctors have decided they're not going to chance anything they're gonna hold him out the rest of the game so Billy ray Haynes will not be back for NC State means Greg Gianna Molla will see more action here in this ballgame and they'll rotate some other people in there as well that's a big loss with Billy ray Haynes averaging home or 10 mistake [Applause] the SATs and team Jones and Thomas Smith make the stop after 19-yard what a story for that young man out of Marietta Georgia it's a similar pattern that they ran earlier in the game the deep crossing route he was an honorable mention all-american on a Walton High School in Marietta Georgia played early in his career here at state and then had some problems obeying the rules here with the Wolfpack Terry Jordan is the guy who was down back at the 40-yard line he got popped by Austin Robbins as he let that ball go back up his Jeff bender he's warming up put me on the sidelines but to finish my story on Santee as you see bender their Sam teen was virtually kicked off the team for the past two years and they've pretty much written him out of the program but he wanted to play with NC State team back in he's been a big contributor this could be a tough moment for North Carolina State DePorter back who was just getting better and better after he struggled against Virginia Tech but came back with solid performances against Kent State at Wake Forest and now he is on his back on the football field and there's a considerable amount of concern over right now he got hit after delivering that pass to Santi well he just passed over the middle from both parts he really hung in there because he was getting pressure from gash and peri outside and then Robin's on the inside see Austin Robin's number 98 looping around and he hits him in a sort of glancing blow and it might have been how he landed that was as much a factor as anything else they are calling for some extra help to get Jordan off the field they're not going to move him right now at this point in time so that looks like it's a serious injury here for Terry Jordan we're gonna take a break here with 14 7 left to go in the first half there's Terry Jordan leaving the field you see his left arm and wrist in a splint and let's go down to the sidelines for an update on the situation from Mike Hawkwood guys they're putting Terry Jordan right in the ambulance taking him to the hospital it is a clear fracture of the left arm his left arm is definitely broken he's obviously out for this game now the question is how long is he going to be out for NC State Jeff bender will get the duty now to take over the redshirt freshman at quarterback that's the second player that NC State is lost today there you see bender now you see but he's done thus far this season he led North Hills High School Pittsburgh areas of the mythical national championship a 1987 that tells you a lot because in western Pennsylvania the past two Santee got on the first down it happened so long ago on Carolina 33-yard events here for NC State to Manor the full-back victim comes in thick pin comes in along with Perry to make the stop Tommy Thigpen playing in place of injured white Hollyer accident he would have been at the other linebacker spot here's what's happening elsewhere Florida State increasing their lead over Michigan that's a boring first quarter on 29 points at Florida trying to bounce back their loss at Syracuse right here at North Carolina State leading three to nothing wasn't at second and seven of a North Carolina 30 [Applause] this time over the 30-yard line down to the 28th and it's evident here Jack the dead cane has got a very small plate here for Jeff bender to get himself into the end well some of the problem even though you give your backup guy work when you get into big ballgames like this that starting quarterback is going to work maybe 60 70 percent of the plays in practice during the week so Jeff bender just hasn't had a lot of time going through this week's game playing third down NC State leading here three nothing vendors going to check off at the line we're coming again [Applause] [Music] [Applause] freshmen to another they probably [Music] for the scout team [Applause] a person with stepped up in flares of BB the defensive back in the play Java Smith had slipped and fallen down with the touchdown stone reception of the scene [Applause] and North Carolina State gets a big boost bobbling what could have been a devastating injury to their quarterback left in the first half state by 10 [Music] welcome back to Carter Finley stadium it didn't take Jeff bender long to get warm up 27 yard touchdown strike in his third play from scrimmage - Eddie goings puts on Carolina State on the board once again the lead 10 to nothing there's the scoring drive 63 yards seven plays part of that are sure downfield by Terry Jordan until he fractured or Unleashed we think he fractured his left on put him out for an indefinite period art Pavel was in to kick it off for NC State sustained [Applause] so think we'll see here so we look for the up facts caucus it [Applause] North Carolina adjusted their kickoff team and brought a lot of people up and I think reads the way they are aligned and kicks accordingly kicked a deep it's a touchback it will bring it out to the 20 and that's where North Carolina will have to start this Drive and Jack down down ten they've got a look at opening up the playbook Alou well I've got to think about do there's still a lot of time twelve thirty nine in the first half and they are only down two scores but they cannot let this game get away at the very least here they've got to get some field position and give their defense arrest get on the field for each plane Snape troll means runs into big Junkins at the 22-yard line gained of two on the play nice play by agency seems to get better and better with each week two sophomore one of the things that helps Aikens and Mark Thomas is the guy between them number 90 right there Ricky logo the huge nose man for NC State if he does the job tying up the center and the Carolina guards then Aikens and Thomas and the linebackers [Applause] Princip third and the types of situations that you like to see as an offensive coordinator at Brown [Applause] so internet felt the pressure there from plate to Henry he is his 2 for 6 for 17 yards so far he had teams may open and probably had enough time to throw a better ball but you're down 10 nothing you feel the presence of Henry talk [Applause] 37 yard line [Applause] Washington and Turner on the tackle it's a 16 yard gain for North Carolina on punch third down NC State stayed back in a very soft zone this time Burnett had enough time throws it behind Holliday but Corey makes a fine catch and picks up a most important Carolina's first down [Music] first-gen [Applause] the line of scrimmage great Gemma more was the man who delivered the first hit I'm suckling because I was watching Ricky logo on to play and on the snap of the ball logo watch right there in Amelia screen you see the tooth carolina guys they both went down with them because Ricky had a hold of their jerseys and literally pulled Dinkin and Parsons down on top of them it left the linebackers for your own well hard-fought yards for nature means [Applause] intended which eateries defending mark Thomas puts the pressure on Chucky Burnett here throwing on the run puts this ball with the nose up in the air that means it's a floater and Rikki Turner making contact with Holliday but going for the ball and then the officials interpretation he has as much right to it as if as the receiver does third trailing what kuranes state by 10 looking at third of nine the backfield with focus that's it away great the skies that defensive coordinator bunny greens call for NC State they showed seven men at the line of scrimmage like they were coming Burnett checked off they rolled back into a safe zone and then Mark Thomas just makes a fine individual play McAllister comes on for his third plant of the day Ladell George is back there gee [Applause] and not down at the 27-yard line coming up to make the tackle was Ray Jacobs that time on the special teams a 40-yard kick for Scott MacAllister in a three yard return for Ladell George but again the NC State offenses on the field that means North Carolina's defense has to come back out into the spot that they played most of this first half don't forget next week State will be battling Georgia Tech here at Cardiff Findlay stadium we'll have that game for you at 12 noon as these in-state rivals will then go elsewhere next week and that should be it being Jen for the Wolfpack at their own 27 with Jeff bender and [Applause] the yard is a lot of it laterally off to the 31-yard line it'll be a gain of four on the floor well right there North Carolina had an idea that maybe they would get Davenport involved in some kind of activity Charles did a good job of an abling Jeff bender to make a block for him Eric gash thought he was clipped wind shad Santee came back to help out in the play but they end up getting almost five on the play second at six play by sniff and also Jonathan Barron [Applause] both to the first down if they give them the spot at the 38-yard line went down in the arms of tommy thick men that push straight off it's a little delay to hand off draw action if you will bodies on defenders at time you could just see those front men of Carolina being engaged every one of the offensive lineman of NC State look at the push they're all getting and that enabled Barbour to pick and choose his way to get out close to the first down and pick it up gain of six and a half maybe seventh get back to what I talked about earlier in the telecast Steve Carl tore boosts the defensive coordinator for Carolinas and we have to start forcing turnovers Carolina has forced only four turnovers so far in nearly two and a half games they have to do a better job of it because they have to give their offense more opportunities against that fine state defense this is a State offense that has only turned the ball over four times in the first three games all those in the opener against [Applause] the past in the flash support he's gone on pourquoi he's got down on 14th what a great call [Applause] coordinator Ted Kane what a great call even then Carolina still has decent coverage on the play as Laville George players at 48 yards downfield what's the effort here by Davenport he just steps in front of Thomas Smith on to play and is but I gotta tell you Jeff bender is enjoying the opportunity to play but he's saying Liddell you've thrown it better than I am the North Carolina State [Applause] Chris cotton one of three North Carolina state will show this afternoon gets down close to the ten gain of three Jonathan Perry and rich Stein backer in for North Carolina on the tackle isn't it ironic though the Charles Davenport of team here as a quarterback wanted to be the guy to guide the Wolfpack to great success it wasn't working out he requests a chance to move to wide receiver and now is creating big plays for this program more than he did when he was running the offense hot for paints plays so far today second down and seven hands off the barber very well to get back to the line of scrimmage Thigpen is there to make the tackle cookie Massey is there as well and also clip Baskerville well sometimes you have to say to yourself this is as wide as I can go and it's time to get north and south Anthony waited two or three times before he finally got vertical made a great effort to get some Potter's positive things out of it but sometimes you got to make that choice mold sooner Carolina State with ten first out the need one third and five inside the Carolina [Applause] now the Carolina defense with good coverage that time on third down they really had to force NC State to kick the field goal if they would have gone down 17 to nothing it really would have put them in a bind in terms of their offensive play calling and 13-nothing embarkment converts you're still only down two touchdowns he's got a 27 yard kick to make this time his first one was 46 yards so far on the year Hartman is four out of five you're Patrick to hold [Applause] lied to the white actually left it a little short at that banana 23-foot goalposts were debated so don't Carolina holds after the spectacular played is AB important but it goes to doctor on a state leading by ten as the Dead Sea Island min welcome back to Raleigh North Carolina Steve Martin Jack organ and also Mike Hogwood with all the action North Carolina State leading North Carolina with 806 remaining in the first half 10 nothing the Carolina defense is just held their offense on the field now first and ten the flats tonight caucuses heavy pursuit he paddled from the outside line backing spot reading screen and just stepping up before the blockers good form in front of Paul Kersey sea battle moving he just got there ahead of Andrew over the battle playing the place of China launched as they get the rotation in Billy ray Haynes here is burn short gain on the play of about three that'll bring up third down and six brunette looks over his offensive unit this is the fifth possession for North Carolina they have two first down so far they have to start converting on third down third straight third run in the full back of meme Drago's to me breaks down inside there's not much room outside read whoa go all-in on the stock no gain on the play and the punting unit has to come back on the field what's the end of this play and count the number of red jerseys and the number of white jerseys granted it's a busted play but means gets outside one two three four five six men within a couple of yards in a TRO means McAllister on the punt nice waterful Adel Jordan George is up to the 40-yard line before he's brought down there by Rick Stein backer 48 yards on the tick Jacobs also in on the tackle a nine yard return by Ladell George and on the sidelines Mike hog wood has a special gift hey guys the guy taking a week off from the NFL or his team is anyway the Houston Oilers one of their leading receivers Haywood Jeffries who starred here at NC State when you think of a big red so far they're looking great out there I was a big play by Davenport but they didn't score thinking that's to keep up the momentum they gotta do a good job before this game is over you're doing a great job for the Oilers you guys are having a good year if things are going well right now sit back against those painters let's just hope their arm is great for the congos come over all right Haywood good to see you here on the sidelines today back up the state robbery Shaw catches the pass from Jeff bender but there's a flag back in the NC State backfield at the 36 yard line dick Fenton gash in on the tackle it's a holding call against North Carolina State so we'll call this reception back and keep in mind it goes from the spot of the foul now makes it end up being holding on the offense was spot on the pile $10 it's a 10-yard penalty but from the spot of the foul it ends up being about a 13 or 14 yard infraction from the original line of scrimmage for the Wolfpack so they'll have it first in in almost 24 now you don't want to be in those kinds of downs and distance situations with a read true freshman quarterback in there even if you do have attending lead 607 left to go the first half of play as the artists first and 23 laying in place of the injured Terri Georgia mouth to the but you've left on is on the pass intended for Harrison looked up a little bit late never bring up second down well it was good pressure on the play that time from Roy Barker bender knew he had to get rid of the ball on Harrison running a two or three count block at the line of scrimmage and then slipping out into the secondary hadn't got his head turned in time Jeff said hey I think it rid of the ball the announcers for this game are selected and compensated by JP sports this broadcast is a copyright presentation any use of the broadcast without the express permission of the ACC and JP sports is prohibited second down and long way to go 23 the Jeff bender George the fullback out over the 30-yard line nice diversion for NC State because when Georgia is the game you're automatically thinking past well they they talked about that the offensive coaches for state saying that they have to at least yo Liddell carrying the ball in their passing set just to keep the defense's honest and sometimes you can pull off a big play on the theory like that there is Carolina's best chance to make something happen third and long about 20 to go 19 [Applause] with Carolina State leading here by 10 ass compete the Shah he does not have the first down up to the 41 yard line now there's a confidence that dick Sheridan has in his defense he said it's third and 20 all right if we can throw a little safe pass and we know we get the pass away no sack no interception if we get a first down out of it great if not we punt it away and the defense will have great field position the defense has proved him to be very wise as for this season they have not permitted a touchdown and they've only permitted North Carolina two first downs in this game today fourth and 10 for Kilpatrick and there's Erich blunt who hopes to give Chuckie banana the office field position [Applause] nineteen initial move to get himself over the 31-yard while and that's where North Carolina will start first intend after Kilpatrick's 39-yard putt a 14 yard return rule Florida State has ruled out wider over Michigan right now three extra points they've missed in that one Duke with the early advantage so it won't be 59 to nothing like it was last year for the Blue Devils in Florida maintains that advantage over the Bulldogs early on Jackie Farrell's been a story at Mississippi State by now the story here is 10 nothing month to a lot of state work there he hasn't found much of it today that gets an opening playing we have a flag down on the play late I think we are going to see David Merritt guilty of a little over exuberance at the end of the play let's wait for Charles Phillips official indication we have a dead ball personal foul on the defense first down 15 yards so two penalties may help North Carolina on both sides of the ball the holding penalty and now the late hit watch the end of the play the right side of your screen means goes down and right there a little extra by David Merritt that's a good call by the officials it's one thing to be exuberant it's one thing to be active it's one thing to be involved in the game but an extra shot like that that has no purpose should be penalized so it's going to be first and ten at midfield field position for North Carolina is for dead Vestas lay down to the 45-yard line thanks 5-yard gain Tyler Lawrence from Greensboro North Carolina on the tackle means on the day eight carries 19 yards lots of time just under 350 to play here in the first half Carolina has two timeouts remaining came into the game needing 57 to cross the 1000 once again tries to get outside it's down to the 42-yard line he'll be shy of the first down coming up to make the stop blaine washington mark thomas made an initial hit and eric counts also in on the stop for north carolina state when you have a 225 pound running back you think of him as just being a power runner but on that play he did an excellent job of doing what coaches like to call the loop leg as a guy went to make a hit on he relaxes a leg and it just sort of falls away from the tackler knees third down play 32 Jordan pass the first step [Applause] he is short read came up to make the stop looked like he was going to dive ahead and get it he's going to be at the 42 Jannah more on the stop they go to the speed back Jordan he tries to cut it up inside Gianna more made first contact and then it was my Creed flying up what's Gianna borne scraped down the line of scrimmage make first kind of second watch read come right there to make sure that Jordan didn't get it but they're going to go for it on fourth and inches fourth and inches Carolina to go the full back straight ahead [Applause] Fulkerson was the man going for the first down and it looks like they're going to give him the mark and give North Carolina the first down but they'll probably measure before they okay that's a first down so the third first down actually the fourth first down of the afternoon for North Carolina see if they run some play-action now and I think I'm a little momentum going let's see if they try and go deep [Applause] passes to the tight-end Dean by my Creed at the 34-yard line I got to tell you I would not want to be a receiver in the area of number three the sophomore strong saftey just knows how to put licks on you I mean James May is 240 pounds that he went flying granted he didn't necessarily anticipate Reid being right there but that's a big-time hit second down and three for the gain of seven [Applause] that's outside yes over the 30-yard line down to the 27 he's got the first down nice block out there by Joey off to tie up the defensive back well it was an even better block on the line of scrimmage by Andrew Oberg the right tackle what's the right side of your screen is Oberg number 78 will tie up plate and Henry the linebacker that enabled him to get around the corner York did the job on savage with his stop block enough for means to get outside and get the first down best sustained mark this afternoon first and ten and [Applause] in the pullback gets down to the 24-yard line a gain of three gianna more in on the stop for the Wolfpack that is characteristic go of NC State when you get a big first down deep in their scoring zone they'll send everybody you get well they'll send everybody on almost every play in the scoring zone right now we've got North Carolina calling a timeout with the ball down inside the state 24 yard line it leaves Carolina with one timeout left there 70 seconds a minute ten to play here in the first half at Carolina really wants to be in a situation of scoring a touchdown in Bay score a touchdown here not only would it be the first touchdown scored against NC State this season it would really change the momentum complexion of this game we had a few moments ago NC State with their tenth and nothing lead looking like it might be 17 and then at least 13 Hartman misses the field goal and now Carolina with their best drive of the afternoon as a chance to really feel like they're leading going into the locker room even if they end up down on the scoreboard because if they get it to three points or seven points here and get the second half kickoff they're in great shape half time we've got lots of things coming away our scholar Dan Fritz Scholar Athlete one for the books best of the ACC and

another [Applause] blood is in a slot would got to the top side see crush on [Applause] at NC State defense in the nation in denying point slamming the door again down near the goal line for for sebastian savage and an inside blitz with both linebackers Rickey logo comes three and Chucky Burnett throwing off balance anytime you see the nose of the football being the highest point of a pass that ball is going to be short and savage stepped up and makes the turnover the 11th interception 18 turnovers forced this year by NC State bender has him at his own 6-yard line manor with a ball up over the five to the six driven back not much game there fifty seconds remain Roy Barker is in on the tackle Carolina has one timeout left but with three downs to play they really cannot figure on getting the ball back from NC State we might see only one more play here although I got to tell you with a redshirt freshman quarterback I want to call the timeout there force them to at least make two more snaps 24 seconds and running first half and North Carolina states disgust but one time but bender does aqua ending the first half of plays these teams exit for the locker rooms an interesting first half dominated as one would expect by North Carolina State's defense but keyed by big plays Damon Hartland a 46-yard field goal with six minutes left in the first and then Jeff bender on only his third play a 27 yard pass to Eddie goings Mike hog wood has dick Sheridan on the field well good news and bad news in that first half the good news is whether the defense came up with a number of big plays well that last interception certainly helped we blue one scoring opportunity earlier than that and of course it you know losing Terry Jordan knows as a blow to us but I think Jeff bender came in on his first pass certainly got a good debut that surprised you'd always Jeff bender came in and was really on the money well his first pass of his Korea's first play of his career in the second ball game he threw for 46 yards so he's a cool customer he'll he'll be ok all right Billy Ray Haines he's out too that also hurts Yundi well you know our lead on offense and defense is out it's gonna mean the rest I'm gonna have to take up the slack suck it up and go alright coach good luck second half that's dick Sheridan head coach to the NC State Wolfpack his team leads 10 nothing we'll

we've had a lot of great games this year so far in college football one of the best was an ACC contact contest down in Atlanta a lot of contact between Georgia Tech and Virginia Foster's flashback a look at last week an ACC football brought to you by Foster's Australian for beer it was the rematch that was almost a carbon copy of last year we could go Thursday Virginia Georgia Tech at Bobby Dodd Stadium on Tech's first play from scrimmage put aback Sean Jones what's Greg Lester and he's got it 76 yards and a touchdown it's 7 nothing in a packed house of 44,000 loving the George Walsh's Cavaliers would come back late in the second quarter but Bobby Goodman finds Larry Holmes that conferred a defensive back on this 50-yard pass play Holmes turns on the speed and he scores and it's all times 7 7 at halftime late in the third quarter Goodman goes of the air again this time he hits Tyrone Davis 72 yards and Virginia takes the lead 14 to 7 the Georgia Tech would come back in the fourth quarter a one-yard run for freshman Rodney Wilkerson and then this 23 yard run for a touchdown by Jimmy Lincoln who had 229 yards on the day under two minutes to play Goodman hits Aaron Monday for a score and it's tied at 21 but with time winding down an encore for a field goal kickers Scott citizen of Georgia Tech he hits the 33 yard field goal and Tech wins it 24 that's 21 an unbelievable finish what a great win that was for Georgia Tech by the way the Yellow Jackets have a big game today as they are playing the Clemson Tigers in Death Valley a game that could have a lot of implications towards the ACC championship later in the season Wow the contest in that game and the performance by Shawn Jones was really graded and we're gonna tell you right now about our ACC Player of the Week and I think you'll agree with me it's a well deserved honor our Exxon acc player of the week from last week's action is Sean Jones a Heisman Trophy candidate from Georgia Tech accounted

of the Week award Exxon will donate $1,000 to the Atlantic Coast Conference to be distributed among the member institution under a conference of pre-planned [Music] carter-finley stadium jam-packed today North Carolina State leaves North Carolina at half time this is an absolutely beautiful day for football but you know the story a year ago down in Atlanta when NC State played Georgia Tech was it the same believe me I can tell you a firsthand it was stifling hot over a hundred degrees over the field and that's the subject of today's one for the books Delta the airline of ACC country is proud to bring you another ACC football one for the books Delta we love to fly and it shows the yearly matchup between two Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets and the North Carolina State Wolfpack is turning into one of the toughest defensive battles in the ACC going into the 1990 game both defensive teams to rank among the top of the country Ken swilling led this outstanding unit on the other side Jesse Campbell was starting to draw national attention along with his defensive teammates Georgia Tech was an exciting game because it was hard fall was extremely hot day you know it's a well of 100 degrees down field yeah really I really like the way I think battle NC State jumped on top early thanks to their defenses ability to turn the big play all told on the day that would force four turnovers and they would send Georgia Tech's talented quarterback Sean Jones virtually into hiding with four sacks on the afternoon they turned the tide whenever they could early figure did I remember the things that stand out in my mind about to gain with to particular place one in which we fumbled the football and they picked it up and went in and I said oh here we go again you know and it was a real concern North Carolina State snake Benson put the Wolfpack up 10 nothing early in the second quarter on this fumble recovery but I think one of the real big plays in the game that had no impact on the game but had an impact on the momentum to the game was our block punt we've lost the punt and although we did not take advantage of it offensive and had no impact to the game there was a mental lift on our sideline and as a coach see only a coach was recognized that and feel bad in Sunset but there was a tremendous lift confidence wise enough football played when that play happened it was truly a classic matchup for the defense and as a result this game turned constantly on big plays [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] this has been another ACC football one for the books brought to you by Delta Airlines we love to fly and it shows great game one year ago down in Atlanta we've got a pretty good game brewing here in Raleigh our score is 10 to nothing North Carolina State leads North Carolina as we do every week let's take a moment now and take a look at some of the statistical leaders around the ACC here is the best of the ACC now let's take a look at diet Pepsi's best of the ACC

remember Buick the new symbol for quality in America and by Schlitz malt liquor no one does it like the full [Music] got on the field for the second half no points in the first half some opportunities what do you have to do to score Mike we've got to settle down and relax and play football we didn't play a very good first half either side of the ball that's not the Carolina defense we're used to seeing in the last year and a half certainly not the offense we've seen understanding States got a good defense but we've got to go out and reel stablish ourselves with some balance the second half be more consistent on offense and go back relax and have some fun and understand what this game is all about all right Mack Brown head coach of North Carolina as he prepares to send his team in the battle here for the second half upstairs now to Stephen Jackson thank you very much Mike will you look at the first half and you look at big plays big plays usually come in to play when you're in a game that has the defense that is as good as NC State but on the offensive side of the ball the big play of the half was an injury that couldn't have a bad omen for NC State down the line well they lost their fine junior quarterback Terry Jordan to what appears to be a fractured arm you see his left arm in that air splint as he was carried off helped off the field and taken by ambulance to a hospital that met that Jeff bender a redshirt freshman from the Pittsburgh area had to come in and the young man showed an awful lot of poise as early on he throws on his third play from scrimmage a perfect strike a 27 yard pass to another redshirt freshman Eddie Goines that foot NC State up by a count of 10 to nothing North Carolina finally got things going late in the first half had a chance to get down to within three within three points or less than a touchdown but Sebastian Savage with his fourth interception of the season near the goal line picked it off NC State has now gone three and a half games without allowing a touchdown you can see the time of possession the advantage to NC State but Carolina finally started to get it going late in the first half we'll be real curious to see how they operate in their first offensive set to begin the second half all right jack they will get the ball back it would have been an excellent opportunity for them to come up with something maybe a field goal obviously they were looking for a touchdown and then Sebastian savage stepped in front how much momentum they're able to reestablish as a result of that will be important to determine on his first drive mark-paul will kick off will North Carolina State [Applause] [Music] Eric what is deep to receive for the Tar Heels it will be underway with the second half sun-splashed crowd of about 54,000 actually 53,000 922 foul ball i motor kicked off by Blum at the goal line and blunt gets his way out to about the nineteen drive-by before he's given back so that's when North Carolina will take over first in ten trailing here by a score of ten to nothing bobble has gotten too deep kickoffs now in the last two times out and Chucky Burnett comes out under center Burnett so far this afternoon 6 out of 14 for 43 yards he's had one pickoff down in scoring territory at the 5 yard line means and fulkerson of a setback [Applause] [Music] pass it and complete sailed away from Natron means on Chucky Burnett they are trying to get Burnett out on a roll in order to get him away from the state pressure Tyler Lawrence with the coverage that time on means coming out of the backfield Lawrence started as a redshirt freshman there's some great linebackers in that NC State's table but it's reduced by one because of Billy Ray Eames easily we talked about Jordan but Haynes is out for the afternoon injured that ankle that the ends of the week ago this means what right in the Ricky logo right at the line of scrimmage and there's not much running room their loss of about a yard or bring up third and long logo the 285 pound junior out of Fort Benning Georgia is the strongest Wolfpack player he has bench pressed in their testing 550 pounds and they are working on another streak besides the scoring situation and as we chronicled they have not allowed a touchdown in three games this season in a game last year Burnett his sack Clayton Henry bleh do you think the Wolfpack is proud of their defensive prowess so far in this 91 season that was good downfield coverage in John Aikens where the basement sack if you will from down below [Applause] here's McAlister on the kick redounds and out is not what next round wanted from his offense this time around here's the return by George and on top of that North Carolina state mile an excellent field position as they start the second half with their offense on the field the 35-yard punt a three yard return Bernardo Harris on the tackle and now here's Jeff bender back out on the center next week exon ACC game of the week originates from this very same facility Carter Finley Stadium and the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets will battle North Carolina State Georgia Tech won the battle a year ago 2113 down in Atlanta is the good good hard-hitting contest defensively dominated this year should be no different Manor the full-back first down get straight ahead though about seven yards it'll be second in three Thigpen and Austin Robbins have to come up and make the stop remember what we talked about earlier in the ballgame last week the Wake Forest defense just wore down because of the amount of time they had to spend on the field in that good push of the NC State front line North Carolina has to guard against the same problem here in the third quarter second down and five vendor John Rock support redshirt freshman at quarterback check [Applause] [Music] Brown the first thing at him with Stein Bakr and Eric gasps but one advantage for that Carolina defense although we have seen a little bit of razzle-dazzle with bender in the ball game you still have to believe that dick Sheridan and offensive coordinator Ted Keane want to be a little more conservative with bender because of his inexperience than they would be if Terry Jordans out there North Carolina's defense has to take advantage of that Hinton has split wide to the top on third and five he was 510 [Applause] like his arm bender nasi could not hang on drawings was the man who knocked the ball away and there's going to be a penalty on the play well what happened as cookie masse lost the ball and then Eddie Goines nearly caught it Massie inadvertently grabbed the facemask of Eddie Goines we have a five-yard facemask but that might be enough to give them a first down watch the end of the play bender floats this one see the wobble on that ball Massey's had a chatot of interception and right there yanked the facemask of Eddie Goines it's only 5 yards but it's going to make it very close to the first down they needed a little under five yards for the first it's going to be a first down mark to head to the 38 yard line but a situation first of all Massey has a a great shot at an interception and maybe a big return now it's NC State's ball first and ten inside the Carolina 40 [Applause] Santee and the slot inside the shoulder of Robert Hinton and in Egypt so far since bender came into the ball game he gets about three yards straight ahead to the 35 yard line Thigpen has been in on a slew of tackles there's a tribute right there in terms of the play calling in the second quarter and early on here in the third period Steve a tribute to the speed on the outside of Eric gash and Jonathan Perry they are shadowing the tailback so state is trying to counter with the quick hits with the pull back up the middle they've gone on the full-back ten times Manor has 28 yards second down and seven locks it up once Davenport touchdown NC State big boy Charlie Pender's second touchdown pass of the day 35 yards downfield a Charles Davenport Blitzen as well number 47 ich bin when he bumped into one of his own men bender folding it over to secondary and Charles Davenport goes big-time once again 1134 left to go in the third quarter the defense did the job holding North Carolina and Bender converts the point affricate by 17 to nothing over the North Carroll [Music] in the third quarter [Applause] we're back at carter-finley Stadium North Carolina State leading North Carolina 17a nothing Jeff bender with his second touchdown pass of the day he's completed three of his five attempt for 72 yards Davenport intercept a receiver on that aerial he's having a great day as well here's the kick by five we'll take a five block at the six gets a hole [Applause] has to come up and make the playoff for a 39-yard return by Erich blunt what came into this game needing about 200 yards one more look at the touchdown for NC State the 35 yarder and Jeff benders sitting in no to the pressure of Tommy thick bender we want to talk about perfect touch right there just over cliff Baskerville have tried to defend on the play career-high receiving yardage for Davenport here's Burnett Thomas is there to make the stop get back to the line of scrimmage may it be a gain of a yard Aitken's forced him out of the pocket it is pin your ears back time for the Wolfpack frontline Thomas and Aikens and fly from their tackle spots you've got Henry and Lawrence the outside backers slash defensive end Chuckie brunettes go see a lot of red his face second down nine now for North Carolina [Applause] here's the draw to means he is Drive if she stalls him until there comes in time and everybody else is able to catch up beat him local are the ones who held him up there's gonna be no gain on the play to complete the thought here is yours well there is nothing there's no worse feeling for an offensive lineman than to know that a defense can play aggressive and rather than reactive beam's Bay in a slot to the white side on third trailing by 17 Anderson in a fullback [Applause] hunting unit back karamaneh Sebastian Savage on the stuff beyond the hit by Sebastian Chucky's Burnett throws a ball - Randall helped instill five yard so McAllister will be called upon again Burnett today six 416 43 yards one interception MacAlister with a kick what else [Applause] five [Applause] a little bit of a disaster nice return of light but you have a returned man fielding a punt inside the 10-yard line all the coaches of the sides go no great play great play when he runs it back 19 yards is they don't want him to catch that ball unless he could get it past the 20 and he did get it out to the 24 we want to thank Rich's Rockler style shop and Terry for assistance using today's open first and ten what Carolina State of the 23 bender wants to throw when he wants it all he wants Davin boy overthrow up against double coverage but Baskerville [Applause] the call they got the call we've really used that weapon this afternoon put that ball 55 yards in the air he is found Charles Davenport as did Terry Jordan five times this afternoon the yardage is a career-high for Charlie with 116 yards in receptions today come into the game with six receptions so he's had a busy day and bender has stepped right in for the injured Terry Jordan [Music] there is Aubrey Shaw trying to get outside can't do it Rondo Jones makes a nice stop at the 23 yard line brings up third and 10 for Ohio State updating scores from elsewhere around the Florida State its best or extra points but they leave my needed halftime Virginia's starting to pull away now in a big second quarter Archana maybe one and two but there are a lot better team and that record might tell you certainly are our score is 17 nothing North Carolina State will pack in a bit of a bind here third and 11 ball play - aw it was wrong but tripping them up with Steinbach er coming back to clean it up was big pen and that prevented the conversion to first down that was a big third down stop with Carolina keep in mind on a previous state possession they had stopped them on third down and then had the inadvertent facemask penalty against cookie Massey that kept the drive alive Steinbach er blank for the injured Dwight Hollyer makes the hit the force to Kilpatrick punt the Patrick onto kicked as what he's done today he'll be kicking it to Erich blunt we mentioned he needed about 219 yards to overtake the top spot on the Carolina kickoff return yardage list he just tacked on a 3900 here's one on the lawn one gets away from our and gets up to the 43 yard line about on his nine yard average it's a 36-yard punt by Kilpatrick and North Carolina will take over we now pause for a word from your local station Steve Martin along with Jack Corrigan and Mike Hogwood at Carter Findlay Stadium in Raleigh North Carolina 18 20 left in the third the Wolfpack North Carolina's stayed out in front here 17 to nothing North Carolina with a ball Chuckie Burnett trying to get untracked that good field position on his own 43 Nate Rome means on the pitch over midfield blocked down by keep battle at the 49 yard line maybe the first time this afternoon or one of just a few times in which they have been able to run the student body sweep for Natrona means good blocking at the point of attack to get around the second down and three for North Carolina means again same play North Carolina State study and here's me dancing his way down to the 32 yard line the 17 yard gain excuse me see a good block by freshman tight end Greg DeLong number 85 you see means slow and getting up on the near sideline and he is gonna have to come out of the ballgame for North Carolina he has just started to get it going and they'll bring Randy Jordan back into it but it was the block of de long the freshman we also have Mike Reed hurt on the play for NC State and that is certainly of concern the hard-hitting strong safety of the Wolfpack has made some big-time hits in this ballgame he can't continue that would bring Tyrone Jackson into the ballgame it's at the end of the play in which breed and means apparently hurt each other as means tries to slip by I can see read at his lake extended boy he did his left ankle or leg William strong is in for read down first and ten North Carolina Jordan in the backfield for Burnett pass complete to the tight end deems May gets about nine yards downfield before he's brought down by wiggins strong that new man as they immediately tested here's means on the sidelines Nate row means had a tender ankle that did not play against Cincinnati who came back last week with a good week against the Army with 94 yards containing here needing 57 to join the 1,000 career club and move into the 20th spot over North Carolina career rushing second down and short Jordan straight ahead and looks like he's got beloved enough for the first down down to the 21 yard long they're working on the right knee of Mike Reed dennah the North Carolina State sidelines Mike Thomas on the tackle their state has not allowed a touchdown in the regular season since Tony Kennedy scored in the fourth quarter of a game at Virginia Tech last November those five games ago jock and Holliday are split twins rolling to that side and it's deflected by Clayton Henry fernette was looking clearly toward the split twins and Henry was the man who got it let's go to the sidelines for another injury update with Mike hog whoo guys good news about Nate Romain's looks like he's okay he's put his helmet back on should be back in the game in a minute Mack Brown said last week against Army this team learned to overcome adversity well as you guys been seeing they've got plenty of it to overcome now but they automatic sometimes abroad here a good Drive that they need to cash in on obviously Burnett now 7 out of 18 52 yards here's the pitch tonight Rowe means [Applause] is there to stop the Dewayne Washington and also rape Frost's driving another line I went into a one back offensive set with two wide receivers to the far side and two tight ends in the ball game tried to run to the short side tight in NC State allowed means no ability to turn the coordinator wanted to take himself out of the game and the coaches sent him back in he's been the chief weapon on this drive so far and it looks like he's very slowly getting into his stance third down and 12 as complete to holiday I think he's got the first down to very close to the 10 yard line that's where he needed to go to get it looks like he needed the 11 Ricci Turner on the stop and Carolina has another first down and they are moving the football holiday is the guy that Chucky Burnett wants to go to he just got that ball through the arms of Clayton Henry but he found Holliday to pick up a big first down for the heels look Carolina can get another first down inside the one where they come Jordan William strong the defense did it again and Jack you know states going to send everybody down here in the scoring zone Rickey logo coming off the field now holding his left arm you're right they they like the Blitz very heavily in the scoring zone particularly on first down they set the strong safety blitz and William strong got the tackle there you see logo going off Daryl beard will take his place second down and Chucky brunette once timeout Chucky's Burnett wants to talk this over on second and 15 well he was checking off at the line of scrimmage and then I don't know if he felt he was gonna have to check off again or that he looked up at the huddle clock and said there's only six or seven seconds left and I don't want to get a five-yard delayed penalty here and make it second in almost twenty so you hate to burn timeouts this early in the second half but at the same time Carolina has to score here they definitely have to score here and that was probably pretty good judgment on Chucky's part to call a timeout about five yards back would have put them in a 30 yard field goal situation if they didn't convert good Carolina State leading 17 to nothing we're in the third quarter JP sports print you the X on ACC game of the week on a sun-splashed day in Raleigh North Carolina we've had action galore big plays all over the place department with a touchdown from 14 Hartman with a field goal from 46 yards out he's long as it the season to put stayed up cleanup and then after Kerry Jordan went out with an injury Jeff bender on his third play found Eddie coins downfield for 27 yards to make it 10 nothing and here in the third quarter fender has found Charles Davenport for 35 yards downfield for 17 544 remain in the third quarter second and 15 for North Carolina there at the NC State 15-yard line Burnett passes complete to holiday break catch with David Merritt right in his shirt down to the 7-yard line again abate Holliday running a little delay dragged underneath the linebackers scene the linebackers aren't sure where he is you can see Merritt not knowing where Holliday was and then unable Burnett to make a completion they get half of it back best of all he's throwing all day weed is back in the ball game two tight ends again third down about seven Burnett looking for the end zone yo touchdown Carolina the first touchdown scored this season the first touchdown scored in five games on the North Carolina State defense again they went with the one back to tight and look rolling left again this time the difference was they ran the two wide receivers to see the reactions first to Mack Brown and dick Sheraton will talk about that touchdown one more time in a second here's the kick by Clint won't be and it is good at North Carolina State now sees their lead diminished to 1017 seven with 503 left to go in the third quarter the Tar Heels are back in it but Carolina State leading North Carolina 17-7 the Tar Heels get on the scoreboard on a 7 yard pass from Chucky Burnett to Joey Hawk and that puts the Tar Heels a much better shape Burnett hitting four out of his last five passes here's Clint Walton getting set to kick with his goings at the top barber at the bottom of your screen to receive from North Carolina State this game all of a sudden changes in a horror going's underneath in the pool right up the middle of the field and up ended by fern our dohaeris as he went to head to the 25-yard line and that's where North Carolina State will take over offensive and for the as you take a look at the scoring numbers on that drive best drive of the afternoon somebody finally crosses the goal line against NC State I was gonna say for the first time in Jeff benders time as a quarterback here at NC State he's in a situation where he definitely has to move the ball it can't afford to go three downs and out now North Carolina has a little bit of momentum going for a little defense finally getting a war [Applause] Davenport to the top and off goes to Maynard they pull back straight ahead he's just shy of the 30-yard line gain of about 400 of a play for Manor on the tackle boy Parker North Carolina a couple for North Carolina State would get wide receivers galore into this thing it'll change their entire backfield except a quarterback just about every other play dick Sheridan concerned momentum swinging toward North Carolina like that his team needs to pick up the first time second at five [Music] Carolina will the Blitz on here's Barbara great shoestring tackle by Tommy big fan to stop him at the line of scrimmage tell Carol Tour boys the defensive coordinator for Carolina says let's put some pressure on him gas chasing and think been stepping up there the two linebackers who around the stunt moves it's a bethink been the junior of the Dumfries Virginia has really carried this defense with the absence of Dwight halyard that's Reggie Lawrence to the top of your screen any coins who has a touchdown pass reception from vendor earlier today as to the bottom vendor on third down going over the middle complete to coins at the 44 brought down immediately by rondell Jones at the 44 yard line but it's a 13-yard game I talked when Eddie goings cut the touchdown pass from Jeff bender in the first half about them doing that last year on the scout team when they were redshirt freshman and when they were true freshman actually being red shirted he's comfortable throwing the ball to Eddie cuz he probably did that all year and so that's why in crucial situations that's where he looks gary downs is in at tailback coins got his first touchdown pass today out of Lakeland Florida first and 10 North Carolina State down gets over the 50 flattened by Jarl Bouldin but he's very very close to a first down let's go back down to the sidelines with Mike Hawk whoo guys you know Terry join went to the hospital and had that broken arm said he wouldn't stay there he's back he's in the locker room now changing into his street clothes he wants to get down on the sidelines and cheer on his team and what too many players is obviously the biggest game of the year and even though he can't play Terry Jordan with a broken arm doesn't want to miss the end of his team his offensive unit that he's got into the first three and a half games on the field looking for second and two Wolfpack leading here by Tim and off to the full-back straight ahead that's Maynard going over the 30 over the 40 yard 44 yard line it's gonna be another first down for North Carolina State so they keep over well they have accomplished the first half of what they wanted to do wreaking field position blunt the Carolina momentum if they can keep grinding away on this block and put more points on the board they're gonna leave Carolina in a real serious ketchup mold on offense in the fourth period 208 left in the third fullback looks at first and ten benders checking on [Applause] bender on the option number yard gets out to about the 35 yard line he's not the guy you think of as being the option quarterback he's not quite as agile as Jordan he's a bigger kid at six four and more than 200 pounds but he puts it away he put a heck of a move on rondell Jones got nearly ten yards Tommie Thigpen who missed a lot of practice time this week and boy he took a helmet from Greg Mader right on the five suffered two injuries a family cut face body bruises after that army game some state going straight ahead again this time [Applause] it's going to be the manor he's got the first down and once again Jeff bender like Barry Jordan did in the first half carrying out the option fake part of that play got a right in the chops from Eric gas touch another first down for the Wolfpack leading 17 to 7 with a minute left in the third quarter Manor and downs the setback [Applause] there's downs Downs is hit by Steinbach er as he works the line of scrimmage not much gain on the play Barker also in on the stop with Karim on two freshmen Thomas control right now Carolina playing not only without Dwight halyard but also without Tommy Big Ben as Kerry Mach has come in at that other linebackers spot NC State going right at that he'd experienced soft middle right now second down seven Jeff bender wants time Dave Fox showed or other the play clock showed eight seconds and bender looked like he wanted to check off he'll come over to the sidelines and talk things over with dick Sheridan they are in Damon Hartman's ranged now as we have seen throughout his career Hartman as the ability to convert from beyond 50 yards but the NC State here really wants to come away with seven points if they come back to a 17 point lead it is going to be very difficult for North Carolina the Gamecocks playing at Greenville with the advantage early on against East Carolina take this opportunity to say hello to a viewer in Columbia South Carolina who's watching today mrs. Kathleen Trotter she is the mother of head linesman Charles Neely who was working today's game today and our Fox go out to her her son wanted her development he'd be thinking about it [Music] [Applause] away guys have been banged around this afternoon we would have been disappointed really Steve a pet didn't happen because when you get into these emotional rivalries like the Carolina State game is you know the contact level gets taken up one more notch and most coaches will tell you that's impossible to do but somehow he managed to do it in games like this Terry Jordan is headed to the sidelines Billy ray Haynes is headed to the sidelines Nate row means went out once but he's back Mike lead went out once for NC State he's back second and about eight imagine looking gets hit as he throws intended for Davenport but he got unloaded upon by Kirk Brown Berthe Brown a redshirt junior out of Virginia Beach Virginia coming from the blindside what they call their five position defensive down linemen which means that generally he stays on the line of scrimmage and reads run first but that time they turned brown loose and he nearly forced bender into an even poorer best third down and eight coming bender four out of eight 85 yards to TD NC State leading here 17-7 when the third 12 seconds left sure [Applause] Wolfpac first down great block by Greg Manor the full-back leading on the delay and then a shifty move by Aubrey Shaw to pick up a first down that third down conversion rate again by North Carolina State so impressive watch it coming right at you watch number 33 Greg Manor right there with a block gun rich Steinbach er nice block by Claude Holley as well M NC state keeps on rolling both teams scored touchdowns in the third and as we take the turn to the fourth it's NC State leading North Carolina 17 7 welcome back to Carter Finley Stadium in Raleigh North Carolina for the 81st renewal of the battle for supremacy in the old North State North Carolina State leading North Carolina 17 to 7 s the margin Jack Corrigan Mike dogwood ringing in the action in our X on ACC game of the week JP sports providing all the coverage this afternoon 15 minutes to go North Carolina stayed in business at the North Carolina first content then they're his to his fullback was upended by cookie massey manor was tackled at the and Massey was the man who made the initial trip up much like NC State likes to do a stunt or a blitz move in the scoring zone here comes Carolina with a safety blitz and cookie Massey disrupts that plays he comes in unimpeded and put the good pop on Manor before he could get his acceleration going second and nine and a half thanks to Massey who miss opposed to the week in practice with a high infection interceptions year ago [Applause] Carolina the path to the end zone [Applause] so 15-yard penalty Palance football if they call interference ud call interference who did he call holding whatever it was it went against Baskerville trying to guard against Hinton on the fade wrap right there hang on pass interference on the defense fifty-one penalty automatic first down and the only time for one of the I should say [Music] we'll give you as much of the 15 yard penalty as they can on pass interference so rather than it being first down inside the 10 its first down inside the 5 and of course rather than under the old proceeding being first down at the 1 [Applause] the state of North Carolina phone [Applause] so possession [Applause] NC State has done such a great job of not [Music] would have been a touchdown coughs up the football Carolina recovers the hit was made by Robbins and thick pan and Thomas Smith comes up with the football watch Tommy Thigpen numbers 40 right there stripping the ball away great Manor that happened in just the right area for North Carolina at the one and he crossed the plane it would have been a touchdown because the path was wide open Carolina's gonna play her down injured it was it is thick man the guy who made the play who got hurt [Applause] the toll has been high this afternoon both teams losing players down on the ground looking like you'll be there for a little bit as - looks it over there's Mack Brown his defense has done the deed and then never a good sight when they bring the stretcher out so we'll sort out the injury to Tommy Thigpen as Matt Brown contemplates his offense taking over we'll be back after this that is Tommy fig pen down around the three yard line he has been injured and they are getting ready to put him on the stretcher to take him out let's take a look at the play one more time when think pen strips the ball from Greg Mayne he is right in the center of your screen now moving from the right side to the center he is so extended here in the effort to make the strip see his momentum was going one way and Mainers momentum going another way you hate to speculate on what it might have been but he certainly had his shoulder and neck area exposed as he made the contact on break Manor and the way they've been carrying there's Dwight Hollyer his partner on the inside who has yet to play here in this 91 season after being injured during the summer what a blow to the Carolina defense to have your quite frankly your two best defensive players now out of the out of the lineup for who knows how long so you've got ray Jacobs and Rick Stein backer and then true freshman Kerry mana rotating in there and that's gonna weigh heavily on backgrounds mine he was looking at a team than last year stayed relatively injury free this year sees his two defensive leaders Collier and Thigpen out Thigpen likely is out for the rest of the day and we'll check and see is that'll be a continuing story as to his continuing availability to the Tar Heels for the remainder of the season he's a junior out of Dumfries Virginia caused a fumble that led to a North Carolina field goal that sealed their win over Army second-team all-acc with one interception year ago he had 16 tackles against army and he was headed toward a similar total this afternoon against North Carolina State and they are taking every precaution here Jack well it again makes you feel like it's a a neck injury of some kind they they want to immobilize him as thoroughly as they can so that when they do move him they do not create any more problems while they continue to attend to mr. thick been behind you again of our game our ACC X on game of the week next week here with Jefferson Pilate sports it'll be the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets who will be battling Clemson later on today against this NC State Wolfpack and certainly the outcome of this afternoon's games for both those teams will weigh heavily on next week's contest the loser next week could find themselves up against it in the conference chase certainly true North Carolina State and Georgia Tech down through the years have always had great defensive battles and this game jack has turned into just that an excellent defensive battle North Carolina has answered the call here in the second half and come up with their only big drive of the day they have just scored a touchdown late in the third quarter to make it 17 7 now with 1406 we have an extended stuff which you play as Tommy Thigpen is removed very carefully from the field gets injured what allegiant you seem to have you appreciate their effort no matter what uniform they're playing crowd very appreciative of that see how they've got the head taped and movable they removed the facemask that was part of the delay because you don't want to take off that helmet which would certainly move that neck around so they removed the facemask to make things easier in terms of communication and getting stuff to Tommy and then you tape the helmet right to the board that totally immobilize the vent man and our thoughts are with Tommy and we hope that all this is is just precaution he is not seriously injured not a good site at all see the ice bag on Austin Robbins arm you've seen a drone means come off the field a couple of times there's rondell Jones with the cast on it is bent on a tough war throughout this afternoon we have seen players for both sides be the recipient a little extra hip because the emotion that strong game between state and airline Carolina State has already lost two players for the game and possibly longer Terry Jordan their starting quarterback out and Billy Ray Haynes is out and look what is happening in Ann Arbor they're scoring a point a minute up there it seems Florida State beating question-is marched on top of Wake Forest early still trailing south on first down pass deflected on and the deflection is done by Lauren thinking now they have tried to run that naked bootleg action with Chuckie Burnett they have had a modicum of success with it one of the advantages for that state Defence's Clayton Henry 6-3 Lauren Pinkney is six for Tyler Lawrence's six three they can put some tall bodies out there second down and ten for Chucky Burnett [Applause] the grasp of Henry excellent coverage downfield by Mike Green and Sebastian Savage he wanted to go deep up the middle to quarry holiday and had no ability to do so and Tyler Lawrence comes up with his first sack of the season NC State with a couple of quarterback sacks this afternoon they double figures in that category third down yardage is in double figures for North Carolina third and 16 that failed by 10 in the fourth puts it out of bounds out of the region Corrin but Tyler Lawrence was there again the brunette is still there our net is down in the for help from the sideline medical personnel in this game strained to the limit Burnett gets up under his own power putting unit will come on I don't know what happened whether they expected Lawrence to fight in the play fake or drop into coverage but he just had one of those free shots at the quarterback fourth check you Burnett's fast to go wide to the right well out of bound fernette proved his percentage considerably on a touchdown drive now McAlister puts it away now George at the 44 [Applause] right there by John left inside linebacker 42-yard punt by McAllister the 8 yard return by Liddell George and it'll be NC State ball in North Carolina territory of Wolfpac fans letting their sentiments be no they're team leading with 1308 left to go in the fourth quarter of play 17 7 Eric touchdown passes Jeff bender to Eddie Lawrence and Charles Davenport around a David Hartman field goal frenzied state punches bender the troll [Applause] Smith on the coverage along with Jimmy Hitchcock with the good field position on the Carolina side of the 50-yard line bender wanted to get it all at you had more time than he thought he really could have sat there a little longer and let Davenport get further downfield before he let it go because the for time you give Charles to run by the secondary the Benfica chances are he had a step on on that time second down and ten and the char the setback and off those debaters right there he gets out for the 45 yard line down to the sidelines we go to my car would guys about Tommy thick pin he is being taken to a hospital even as we speak you saw the precaution they took getting him off the field that's because he lost some of the feeling in his body and he has a neck injury and they're gonna go and check it out beyond that the state North Carolina doctors are having absolutely no comment but they're very concerned it's obviously about Tommy Thigpen and we certainly hope for the best one third down and seven for Carolina State leading by 10 [Applause] [Music] [Applause] good-looking pattern by goines ball a little high for him but it was a catchable ball at around the 32 yard line good blocking by state to pick up the Carolina blitz and it almost looked like Eddy misjudged that ball that he extended a half bus tried too soon and wasn't able to gather himself towards the ball so Kilpatrick in punt formation has had a good day new yard average although seasons average and there's Erich blunt receipt [Applause] [Music] it goes into the end zone tried to get it to die a little bit but North Carolina will get the ball back at their own 20-yard line with 12 10 left to go on the 4th North Carolina State by 10 you got the whole situation right there the scoreboard at carter-finley shows it all 17 7 North Carolina State JP sports transportation is furnished by budget car and truck rental the official car and truck rental company of the Atlantic Coast Conference [Music] a head knocker here today in Raleigh as we expected lots of injuries coming Thigpen off for the game Derek Jordan out for the game for the ray Haynes up the game Chuckie Burnett is in there at Porterville first and ten is the pass complete - y'all got the first down up to the 33 yard line a gain of 13 Sebastian savage helped out on the tackle with title loans I really think that's what Daryl Moody has decided he has to do the offensive coordinator for Carolina says Chucky is just not as comfortable getting real deep in the offense so we go back to both the slant passes a little stop up even though it's going to eat up time that's our best chance to get more points on the [Applause] focusing in the backfield [Applause] tried to sprint out of the grasp of Rickey logo who's returned to action and grasp that all right Patras see it hanging that left arm down the big nose mean for the low fact anytime they can force Carolina into these second award very very difficult for that Tarheel office second and 12 this one is [Applause] state showing blitz [Applause] when Ed steps up in the pocket and gets sack for a walk to the 29 yard line that's mark Thomas in there for the stop is our Flitz pump like a game summary or throw an estate up by 10 lose a tummy thick pin is going to be a real problem form the first touchdown though of the season against that NC State defense Terry Jordan gone for the year more than likely [Applause] has played very well [Applause] standing tackle he's got two sacks this quarter the 20-yard line in comes the punting unit I can imagine the conversation on the sidelines Nick Sheridan telling his defensive unit you guys have to step up and take over control this football game be mad that you've given up a touchdown kick by McAllister as a beauty George at the 31 and men at the 37 made by Bernardo Harris a 48 yard kick by McAllister he's had some boomers today in just a 6 yard return he's a definite pro prospect averaged more than 42 yards in his career now for Carolina and he has been outstanding this afternoon so North Carolina State will take over first and ten at their own 37 yard line for showing on the clock [Applause] Downs is the tailback he'll get the call thousands of all squirts loose understand look like Curt brown come up for the football big hit on downs after had good yardage trying to work for a little Act and Eric cash stripped the ball loose Curt brown falls on it to second half turnovers here by NC State Carroll torpor said we needed turnovers come here in the second half [Music] took back what could have been a potential touchdown this one puts Carolina and feel position at the 43 of NC State Randy Jordan they're meeting with David Merrick big play after big play by that young man out of South Carolina missed all of last year after hurting his neck in an automobile accident done a great job in the spot that was built so well by Jesse Campbell the past couple years [Music] the same problem ball still down here Carolina's gone at that ball was on the ground for about five seconds nobody see-saw moved beyond the offensive Rodman backed into the backfield well those who did see it couldn't get to it including you and I Brown kicked it backwards and it's just laying there kept again before finally [Applause] in Reverse third and fernette for too long I wasn't looking he was engaged there with platon hammer the defense has done it again and listen to the crowd MacAlister is on one more time labelled George deep [Applause] made a lot of appearances is that yet so that's it at the 17 let's go down to the sidelines after this 31 yard punt a Mike hog whoo guys I'm with Billy Ray Haynes who was injured earlier in the day and is out for the day but Billy Ray you got to be proud of the way this defense is risen up and he'll blow yeah we got some banged up bumps and bruises early in the game and you know some of the people been able to find it back moment you know and our defensive line totally gonna go past us right now I know I think that's the key of the game right now so they're getting to Burnett that guy all right we hope to see you back real soon Billy ray Haynes first jun-chan the North Carolina State 17-yard main or the full-back tried to protect the football up over the 20 rock shows 839 and running Roy Parker and Kurt Brown recovered the fumble that gave North Carolina momentary possession and on attack excuse me Steve now is the time that they really want to try and grind it out the more they can knock those seconds off the clock the better the chances of NC state going to four and ohm they want to get at least three first downs on this drive and if they can do it taking three downs each time so what's the better second and seven [Applause] calls to downs he's up over the 22 about 223 we might get a holding call deep in the Carolina's backfield are in the state backfield Jakob's and Steinbach are the linebackers 71 with a takedown first time they really identify people here I don't want to point in anybody but this is who did it Scott Adele [Applause] watch from the right side of your screen yeah I think he had ahold of Austin Robbins I mean I don't want to say for sure but he did look like his jersey was a little extended so Adele gets called Philip Connelly the hold will march North Carolina State back inside their own 10-yard line and it's going to be third down a second down [Applause] [Music] the belt Georgia's in the back field see of thinking past with just under here drawbridge aw Jonathan Perry makes the shoestring tackle as he crosses the 10 up to about the 14 it'll be a gain of about 4 Paul Bree Shaw we haven't seen much of Anthony Barbour descent seen a lot of Gary downs we've seen a lot more of the fallback that I think North Carolina State wanted to expose today and that's because of the fine outside pursuit of North Carolina's defense as you pointed out and it might be a little bit of using that the tailback says decoys this afternoon third down and long 14 with Carolina State trying to protect the ten-point lead on the football George get the call tops it up both Carolina Rick Steinbach who will pick it up and North Carolina is presented with a golden opportunity [Applause] turnover battle has been advantage NC State throughout the season but just as he was going down Liddell George I think he saw Eric cash coming and he wanted to protect the ball and instead he popped the ball loose in Steinbach ER the sophomore out of Greenville South Carolina comes up with the third fumble recovery of the fourth quarter Bennett Michael Payne was delivering the hip cause to the 15 bounces in on the tackle with Gianna more no gain on the play 6:48 showing on the clock background getting anxious is need his team needs to punch one in here they have converted every time inside the twenty this year when the game was on the line what in New York slip to the top holiday to the [Music] [Applause] marriage should get a half an interception the mark Thomas blindside number 53 - Chuckie Burnett and it changed the trajectory of the throne [Applause] right there North Carolina State takes over again with 621 left to go we've got a break in the action and the Wolfpack leading by 10 welcome back to Carter Finley stadium there's the situation in our XM ACC game of the week North Carolina State up by 10 the Carolina sideline is really looking down after their inability to cash in on an excellent opportunity inside the 15-yard line Chucky's Burnett shaking his head just threw the interception cost his team a potential score benda giving do you mean the full back of the blood Carolina State fumbling on two out of the last three possessions nothing is safe well they're in the situation here now to it it'd be interesting to watch the Hubble clock in these situations because they may want to try and and snap this ball with this seconds remaining on the 25 second clock Florida State maintaining its advantage early in the fourth quarter and Virginia after spotting Duke three points has scored 34 unanswered and northwestern is crushing the Deacons 17-7 here with one Tirana State leading open had a second down and six - Gary Javanese convincing tackle as he crossed the yard line I'm to the 13 maybe a gain of 1 break Mina trying to provide the block here and he gets the Block on Steinbach er but Jacobs rolls free or make that Jonathan Perry who was blocked in the play but the sophomore Jacobs out of Hampstead North Carolina with the hit third and five for the Wolfpack they lead here by ten o'clock shows 5:10 left Jeff bender the redshirt freshman playing in place of Terry Jordan Jordan fractured his left arm early [Applause] North Carolina's Austin Robbins who's played an outstanding ballgame this afternoon they drive downs back to the 11 yard line and bring the punt unit on for North Carolina State now you've got a great punt returner in Erich blunt you've got a situation here where a state knows they've got to get this pun away real curious if Carolina is going to just go with the return rather than the block they've got the 10min up again I still think they're gonna go for the return they need field position Kilpatrick in his own end zone they're sending people at the 48 headed for the sidelines Tyler Lawrence drives him out of bounds at the 45 yard line a 36-yard punt on a three yard return we have 418 left to go here at carter-finley Stadium North Carolina State jumped out to a 10 nothing lead they've been scored upon by a touchdown for the first time this season but they have held sway since then with great defense 17 7 as they look to tack on their fourth win of the season and continued their streak against North Carolina two straight all's well looking for holiday all the clothes it Sebastian savages there in couple they like to run brunette for some reason he seems to throw the ball better on the run to his left than his right although forced with it the ball aligned on the right hash mark did you do the roll you've got to go that way but they seemed like to do that a lot tried to square his shoulders up to make a good throw but there was good coverage anyway that was as much a throwaway as an equally fast as what he's done today the two interceptions [Applause] really in the pocket Thomas [Applause] with the big sack please come up with big play after big play he and Tyler Lawrence have had an outstanding day well he's a former outside linebacker who has really progressed as a down lineman he just went right through Andrew Andrew Oberg he just said you are not going to deny me access to my target six sack of the day about on Carolina State defense third down and 15 our heels trail by 10 pass over the middle

Kilpatrick did his best to try and draw a flag Erich blunt called for the fair catch in part to stop the clock 1:55 left to go Carolina trailing by 10 they have the ball at their own 45 to the sidelines complete su-yong and the 48 yard line it's a gain of five stops at Brock with 151 left Joey Ock his father Ray off the coach in the Canadian Football League and the USFL brother Jimmy was a pretty good defensive back with the Tar Heels second and five coming up the North Carolina they have two timeouts Burnett most time he's had this afternoon complete to holiday what a pass by Burnett through two defenders Washington covering on the play the ball down at the 38 yard off and Dewayne Washington able to wrap up Corey holiday as he catches this ball between Washington and Rickey Turner we'll come back without a huddle burning again on first and ten at his complete to Natrona leaves he scurries to get out of bounds at the 31 yard line it could be a gain of seven on the play it stops the clock again with 133 left to go there are a lot of moving methodically down the field this time they will huddle up as the clock was stopped Burnett with two straight completions at four out of five in Carolina's only touchdown drive of the day the first touchdown scored upon NC State this year there's the situation second Burnett checking off on the line rolls under pressure gets Randall Felton completed the 17-yard love [Applause] mark Thomas got their 1/2 account late deep curl route the Randall Felton brunette steps up on the roll out and fires a strike built nearly had that ball stripped away by savage pass complete to the 17 Burnett Hall played a means mean still on his feet folds out of bounds to stop the clock at the 13 yard long with a minute 18 left and as a gain all told for as much time as he spent on his feet of five yards and they mark it out where he last had possession of the ball not where he foam did it out of bounds but I tell you what the fumble out of bounds didn't hurt nope good is the first down second down and six Burnett in trouble calls his own number hesitates and falls inside the 10-yard line to the nine still moving on a minute and eight left and he's going to be shy of the first down Carolina will have to line up quickly they'll be third and one there you see the clock he's got it Paul kirshen with the carry his second of the day down to the seven yard line first down and North Carolina will take their last remaining China well I don't know if they called their last timeout or if that's the officials timeout to stop the clock for the first down it is I think you're right yeah it's going to be they're gonna bring the chains in to measure so this will not go as a charged timeout yet to Carolina it's a break you that they can send Burnett quickly to the sidelines to try and get a few plays together if they have or have not made the first end it looks like they've got it they do by a half a football through first and goal at the 7 North Carolina with one timeout remaining 49 seconds left to go Burnett on the day 15 of 30 to 130 yards a touchdown and two interceptions trying to rally his team back from a 10-point deficit [Applause] Mack Brown and channel the side loans Burnett has his play holidays good line to the top we've got a it felt lined up on the long side 39 seconds left to go in the game Burnett back pass complete to means he knocked out of bounds at the three yard line by Mike Green that stops the clock for 29 seconds level that was the race not only for the corner the end zone but the sidelines I think when they drill and realize he wasn't going to get in he said I've got to stop the clock he just barely got out into two and a half yard line where it'll be second down and goal what's the end of this play when meems realizes he is not going to get to that pylon now he's running horizontally let me get out of bounds the lunge with the football second and goal ditch the knees drop in the backfield it covers and they got a call that time out now with 22 seconds remaining they finally do the call the timeout now with 20 seconds left Chucky Burnett's short arms this pitch I don't know if he saw the full-back in his way or there was some problem Darrell Moody the offensive coordinator just disappeared from the screen as you see Mac Brown and Chucky brunette discussing what they're going to do the only thing I can think of on that play Steve was that as brunette made the reverse pivot away from Center and to make the toss to these out of the corner of his eye he saw the full-back going by who was going to be the lead blocker and was afraid of hitting him with the pitch and kind of pulled his arms back as he tossed the ball and he ended up bouncing the pitch it was missed time dick Sheridan has seen his defense fold over the last four times at North Carolina has gotten the ball in his territory and this time would seal it for sure third down coming and goal it's at the six yard line of North Carolina State well the other factor too is by making them take more play more plays to scored even if Carolina scores on this play and successfully does an onside kick

little better how about this defense keep coming up with the big plays and a great effort in OP history for three quarters I thought we played very well fourth quarter we will bottle up we got conservative didn't want to turn the ball over that's exactly what we did turn it over you have to be proud of a guy like Jeff bender who comes in and gets one of the biggest rivals of the year North Carolina really keeps his cool and throws a couple of touchdown passes I think that the fact that our offense responded to Jeff and our defense respond to the situation about Billy Ray adds some satisfaction is we're gonna miss him the rest of the way but at least this one game the people in their places early came through all right congratulations what a smile on his face huh as he head to
