NCSU vs Florida State 1998

the national championship came [Music] the dynasty of the 90s maybe in new hands but they appear to be as reliable as ever the Seminole chief who has captured the nation's spotlight and dominated the ACC only perfection is acceptable among the challengers though a hungry wolf pack who last year refused to die as Tory hole pierced anoles for a league record five touchdown catches it was fun if I can do that again from carter-finley Stadium in Raleigh North Carolina the number-2 team in the nation in action today as the Seminoles of Florida State take on the Wolfpack of NC State and hi everybody I'm Terry Gannon both the Noles and the pack winners in their non-conference openers now they get down to business in the Atlantic Coast Conference and if history tells us anything about this matchup Tim Brent it's that they put up big numbers on the board and reasons to believe that that could happen again today well we hope that's the case because that would be fun to watch we do know this game showcases two of the best wide receivers in the entire country you got to a Torrey hold of NC State and Peter Ward of Florida State and of course Warrick is a Heisman Trophy candidate he had fifty three receptions last year just impossible to stop great routes tremendous speed but he is playing dinged up today look at this kickoff classic got rolled up on sprained his ankle bruised his foot we did talk to him down on the field he says he's fine he's in that Heisman race he does not want to sit out on the other side of the field of course Torry Holt Terry told you about his five touchdowns against the Noles last year I want you to count the number of places they line him up and put him in motion because he doesn't want Florida State to key on him big play is big days that's what they say here and he needs that today the Florida State Chris Weinke a solid start against Texas A&M look for him to open things up against the pack today Florida State at NC State comes up next on ABC one of the most emotional days of the year with an ACC team takes on Florida State and amidst the fireworks here comes the Wolfpack [Music] [Applause] the pack taking the field just moments ago and now live you look at carter-finley Stadium we mentioned the high-powered offenses this is what these two teams did a year ago or design a lot of that was story Holt over NC State it was late in the game they have to prove they can do it early and they have to do that today and there is a look at Mike cocaine and now Bobby Bowden 11 straight years in the top four ten wins throughout that time 47 and one only one loss that's a Virginia back in 95 since they joined the ACC six straight ACC titles he's going after his seven but obviously [Music] sure and his problem is different than that of my cocaine my cocaine is trying to raise the level of his players to compete with Florida State Bobby Bowden's problem is to keep his players mentally honed because they're going after a not national title and certainly are heavily favored in this game Bobby Bowden's squad will receive the opening kickoff North Carolina State won the toss deferred to the second half and right away Michael came making a decision to get his defense on the field but he gets his defense on the field against that Florida State offense that's the bad news yeah and I'm not sure that's a good call and I'll tell you why I like to put the offense on the field when you're out man like they are today and try to melt as much of the clock as you can and keep their high-powered offense on the sidelines the Wolfpack losers last year in Tallahassee 48 to 35 but they gained a lot of confidence from that comeback you will and have not lost since Scott Earwood the first kicker since 1957 in an NC state uniform to both handle the kickoff duties a place kicking duties and the punting duty or you just hate to give a knockout puncher the first shot and that's what they're doing here and back deep you look at D Feaster great running back he'll get a lot of time in the backfield today because Bobby Bowden wants to sub with Travis minor he's back there along with Reggie Dirk Durden a junior out of [Music] [Applause] and underway in Raleigh it'll be Easter Anna don't 7 yard line the middle loads as quickly and after the 26-yard line that's where the nose will start their first series the chilly starting lineups the offensive line for Florida State it's a young one but this is the biggest offensive line Bobby Bowden has ever had at Florida State they go about 65 300 pounds the wide outs Ron Duggan's getting a start today and yep there you see him Peter Warrick with the bad ankle bad foot but he is in the starting lineup lamar glenn the fullback one of the keys for Florida State in that win over Texas A&M and Travis minor with a record 34 carry the Florida state record they found Winkie [Applause] can you believe this on the first play from scrimmage work to the endzone let me say it again you don't want to give a knockout punch of the first shot I believe you're right partner 74 yards the angle the foot are fine and he's definitely in the Heisman race [Applause] earlier in the week peter warrick on crutches after the injury against texas A&M no crutches there [Applause] Sebastian Janikowski on for the extra point and he blasted through all the way back to the NC State van Gogh once played one touchdown for Peter Warrick in an old did look like a complicated rowdy there he just ran a post pattern I think there was confusion on the defensive side but I want you to watch this the left hand to your screen it's a play-action everybody sucks up now he looks down to the right there he is just splitting his own and he's wide open there's nobody in a red jersey even around him touchdown Warrick Jason Perry I guess was the closest he was the safety but look at this he just runs in the seam and Weinke just throws it perfectly now Chris blanky you know there were some question marks about him early saying he's not as experienced as they'd like I want to tell you something they said he'd made all the right reads in the kickoff plastic and he comes out in this game he's 1 for 1 you know he had that smile on his face yesterday though when they talked to him at the walkthrough said yeah I kind of played it close to the vest in the Texas A&M game got it to Warrick a couple of times in fact 9 times had a great day did Warwick but we really didn't have the big play we want to open it up against NC State I think they did that early enough what amazes me is I know the defense for NC State did not want to get in one-on-one coverage cover 1 and they were trying to run some combination defenses all day so they can help each other but this is amazing to me you see the Heisman Trophy come out huh and lineup by himself and it just runs a post pattern if he goes untouched the worst possible thing that could have happened for my cocaine you win the toss you defer to the second half you kick off to Florida stay I guess the worst thing that could have happened is Florida State would have run the kickoff back but this this is just as bad mike is such a good guy and he's an outstanding coach boy it's tough when you have to take it on the chin right away to start Janikowski goes about 255 pounds from Poland came over at the age of 15 now from Daytona Beach and that's a solid 250 was a load he's got that bald head that big body looks like a linebacker Erika leekes left your picture in rashon spice starting tailback set to return this kickoff from an old [Applause] [Music] there's a surprise Janikowski Shenzhen 6 yards deep to the end zone and link will go to one knee bringing out to the 20-yard line to start their first set of down the chillies starting lineups for NC State this offensive line a couple of returning starters Ian Rafferty coming off knee surgery really the leader at the left hackle spot Justin burrows scored a touchdown recovered crumpled last week against Ohio not only do you know about Tory hold who has either broken all the records or will break the NC state records but Chris Coleman a reliable receiver when all the attention is on hope and in the backfield rashon spikes takes over for Tremaine Stephens one of the outstanding runners in NC State history Stephens RAM for 1140 yards spikes has to pick up that pace little bit helped him out back there so Jamie Barnett now the shotgun goes back under center and direct spikes and the full-back Jeff Cutler to get me out in a big game for the eighth time across the 40 and out to the 48 yard line Spike's ahead 428 on NC State's first play from scrimmage give a lot of credit to Barnett the quarterback because he checked to this they spread the offense would spread the defense then they didn't have eight guys in the box and you stopped it like there you look at all this territory he has to run they did that because they spread it they got the linebackers out of there from tackle to tackle they spread it thin opened up that hole he got into the secondary and had the big gainer Melissa Florida State defense that is banged up this early in the year they've got a number of players and we'll talk about that later on who are not playing today Brian Hamrick didn't get off the field fast enough and Barnett called a timeout to avoid a penalty though a timeout on the field NC State wants to set things up and get organized who will take one as well the null is up by a touchdown the Wolfpack driving it's a go you missed the score already 74 yards Peter Warrick on the first play from scrimmage from Chris Weinke Jamie Barnett one of the best seasons in NC State history as a quarterback a year ago and set to break most of the records for the Wolfpack only a junior he's been a starter for two and a half year the motion is hope [Music] or net for this weight drop but this one is deflected over the middle the metro stevens the senior going to hand on it this is a defense for Florida State that Bobby Bowden falls maybe the fastest he's ever had up front they are injured though Larry Smith out with an ankle injury so Corey Simon getting his start the Metro Stephens taking over for four-year starter Darrell Bush Stephens calling the signals defensively fie on Rackley getting a start as well and this may be the deepest secondary that Bowden has had - they're very quick back there and you know you know revenge is on their minds Torre hope with the five touchdown catches a year ago second intent Garnett [Music] [Applause] inside the 35 to the 33-yard line Cory hope with his first catch of the afternoon in a big game for the pack now they put him in motion they put him in the slot this time way out wide now watch this it's just gonna be a little hitch flanker screen bring him back in hope you get some block him break a couple of tackles and he's got the first down I'm telling you folks he is special senior captain legitimate all-american caught 16 touchdowns last year that's a career for most guys the one on one with Troy Saunders Tim who had some troubles in the Texas A&M game and don't be surprised you can see a Mario Edwards in there fairly soon first down for the pack spike inside the 30 down to the 27 yard line so the pack moving the football on their first drive Dexter Jackson the free safety senior out of Quincey Florida on the stop all right here you go now you talked about the defense as we look at spikes all right to carry through NC State 34 total yards that's already more then Texas A&M was able to run against his defense in the kickoff less Texas A&M got only 33 yards all night rashon spikes with the two carries so far for the pack buycks much more of an inside runner than stevens was a year ago under pressure this one's almost picked off came from the outside Seymour yeah he was going to a hole again Holt was just one of the little short post pattern and I want to tell you something see now you've got Stevens in there who's a great big guy he's 6-3 240 pounds and he's got a great big wingspan Barnett goes to throw Steven stands bone I mean they just come hard everywhere around that football they're running and hitting not to mercy this week because Michael Cain said they are addressed if they click fair but they really play on the edge anything headlines said he's worried about their safety I would say I'm worried about their safety but Florida State knocking out quarterbacks Barnett to the turf again after the incomplete plant pass and Michael can we talk to him about this - it was very he was it if he was upset about the way the article came off in the papers because he said I wasn't making any commentary at all about Florida State going after people when trying to hurt people I said they tried to take out Torry Holt as in doubling him and taking him out of the game and he said I'd like my players to play like Florida State's players on the edge all the time well and it became a big issue because of the Bowl when Steve Spurrier was talking about them hitting late playing on the edge and actually crossing it Michael Caine was so upset by the headline he actually called Bobby Bowden and said hey look coach this is what I said I said I love the way you guys play you play on the edge you play aggressively and I wish my guys would play there now if your Florida State a coach or a fan all you're thinking is there we go again names a comment that Steve's story are made and we're sick of it Alex Santos and it's not the guard this is going to be a problem today for NC State because they are not very deep on the offensive line sent us the senior out of Orlando and a left leg that he's favoring they've got a number of players out already on that offensive Monday as you said top boil a tackle out with a neck and shoulder nerve injury you know Michael Caine gonna place it down and drive for a 44 yard field goal and this one is well to the right and no good there with its first try of the year the transfer from Catawba College not successful though the Noles still up by a touchdown gorgeous day in Raleigh North Carolina summits in Grant's buddies in the stands watching on 7-nothing Seminole this wainting going to take over at the 27 yard line first intend old garv admit is Infowars of this year when and miner out of the yard play got minutes coming back nice catch at the 45-yard by now they roll it incomplete a little bit underthrown and they'll bring it back and let's check in right now with our New York studio and John Saunders it's time for the Burger King update trouble in Ann Arbor for the Wolverines coming off that loss to Notre Dame Kevin Johnson here six yards on the touchdown run Donovan McNabb is now just throwing a touchdown pass to Conrad and it's a 13 nothing game the extra points still to come we'll keep you up-to-date Terry back to you trying to get over that loss to the Irish I guess John and of course later tonight Notre Dame in action against Michigan State and East Lansing that right here on ABC at 8 o'clock Eastern you can play class on the first [Applause] at the 11-yard line Harrison had the initial coverage but it was Tony Scott who finally ran down Lavernia scold no question when he tells you wide receiver is the strength of his offense loaded with speed and depth there's a great indication they bring in Venice for Warrick and they bring in Luverne he is cold for Duggan's and it'll lose anything watch this it's the same pattern that Warwick's poured on earlier it just line up wide right then run the post pattern again they were enough three beeps old-type defense and they just couldn't catch him same play different number 63 yards past that time brad has minor tough going up the middle post of tacklers just inside the 10 you know for a few seasons after tamarick vanover left school memphis you struggle to find a wide receiver with speed now they're loaded with them everywhere see look at this well you look at the speed compared to the NFL speak from the combines a year ago faster at the quarterback spot little slower at the offensive line but look at the wide out much faster than those in the NFL the average speed of the NFL Bobby Bowden has ever had so and if you listen to Bobby baton he'll tell you he's got a couple guys that are under 4 - but she's incredible that is my struggle now they do run their 40s on a track anywhere in the vicinity of board - if you run under it's incredible yeah I was going to say that he also said for a while they had a trouble finding the speed receivers and went Vanover left they struggled a little bit but no longer I'm the eg Green is gone but word coals are the best Santa Min the country yet string of venison Duggan's attract me reaction against the linking 20 of time warden Harrison a junior at a floral park he comes up with the biggest play the game so close to the pack he just sits in the end zone and waits here's winky who told us yesterday he's got to be patient because he has so much more time playing against teams like this that he does going against his own defense but then just throws in the corner Harrison was there just waiting that was just a poor pass by Winkie a lot of pressure from Greg Derrick on the outside to eventually at play time initially them that wasn't the question [Music] and interceptions it was one of the priorities for them in the off season already this year they've had before you know I how could it say I think the problem there was yet too much time and he just locked all the receiver and led harrison to his pro rank even talked to Martin Griffin the offensive coordinator upstairs now and this is what NC State at home for that early in the game all the different defenses that they're going to throw at him in two different coverages and they're hoping that they can confuse walk straight at the line of scrimmage going nowhere big ol number 56 Roland Seymour the sophomore out of New Orleans commits spikes at the line and drilled it the NC State's thought in a tough spot down here number one you're backed up with Christopher own defense you don't want to make a mistake here so you do that or do you try to get some fighting room watch go ahead take a shot I mean you're a big underdog in this game you got Troy a home you got some guys he just left I throw a high percentage pass maybe a quick slant the whole ladies a tight end hopefully put on that offensive line gnome you know now let's go take another timeout that's the second time out that Barnett has had to burn [Applause] they call the timeout earlier when Erika leekes wasn't in position and now you can see Jamie Barnett awfully frustrated because something didn't look right at the line Barnett's he's got to realize he's got plenty of room back there to move around and that in the end zone he just cannot take a sack and can't throw the pick he's got to be certain so in other words he's got to throw in rhythm he's got to go 1 2 3 4 get the ball out make sure you don't throw an interception [Music] so they'll talk things over on the sidelines while we have a moment let's check in once again with a New York studio 15 years on the sidelines the defensive coordinator and the architect of his feedback he likes him to be aggressive they're to be coming after Barnett right here nor evoke emotion to the forest I really see the set under pressure in a straddle good everybody stop got the first down and you're right after the Noles defenders jumped across everyone was in slow motion so the question that begs had the place started if the play started it's a free shot Bob Barnett if not they'll call it back but just everybody just stops down if part net did that on purpose that's a great play because everybody stopped with him and then he got out got the first down take Cody made the tackle knocked him out of bounds so you jump first we've got two fouls on the plane you got the illegal motion on the offense you got outside over the defense both totally love sat for a replay throw it down all right there's hole up top cuts upfield to early Siebel pull the ball of snap up here and so and then the bottom right of course get two or three guys jump but of course it was right down to bottom with Tony Bryan's that's a bad break for my cocaine because we saw the defenders off sighs and I think he thought he had a free play at that point it'll bring up third and nine again [Music] and there was hope you know this secondary keeping an eye on him no matter where he goes today go in motion the 23-yard line was another catch another big gain in the pack hell of a move the football early in the first that's in 20 yard game both started on the left side winning motion when he did it took two defenders with him the tight end of on Smith's was wide open but Barnett never even looked at him instead he went right here still a good call any time you can go to your all-american and he put the ball right there for it so they moved to change that's a huge play for Barnett and it's a good sign for state that they're not playing conservatively even backed up like that they went on third down threw the ball effectively rather than just worried about getting some room to punt it out and Brian Hamrick jr. on a Shelby North Carolina inventory hope right now there's Chris Coleman going up board who came down with it we got it that's a catch Coleman comes down with it between two defenders and another big change for the Wolfpack if they both come down with a football it goes to the receiver yards on the cat yeah but I want you to watch this he had it all the way anyway wind up split the two defenders nice play pop our net on the play-action they just kind of lost it he's got a tall receiver who's 6-3 going up against the 511 at six footer and look see the balls on his chest they don't start wrestling away until he's on the ground most intentional Spike's over the right side and down to the 41 yard line Lamont Greene involved in the tackle the senior out of Miami playing with a knee bruise and we mentioned a number of players for this Florida State defense banged up Tommy poly as a hamstring and we have not seen him Brian Allen a backup middle linebacker out with an ankle injury so you'll see a lot of Theon Rackley and a lot of Radley Jenny stick and of course Larry Smith in those dark also out Spike's straight ahead and down to the 37 yard line before Tony Bryant wrapped him up no spikes you getting a good look at what type runner rashon spikes is the junior out of northern Connecticut straight ahead runner goes about 511 210 already with five carries 41 yards and a great average so barber to go out to break him on the outside he wants to run straight at you Cary NC State had seven plays in the first Drive they already have six in this drive to the melting the clock a little bit keeping the Florida State offense on the bench girls hope in motion again inside the 32 the 27 so the Barnett's a whole combo alive and well today it Carter Finland Levon Thomas the right cornerback was right with Torry Holt and made the stop he is such a quality receiver he's got great speed look he's in motion trying to lose him he's got the safety trail in him does too quick out now look Barnet puts the ball out in front of him he makes a great catch he's got three catches for 50 yards and truly looks like the all-american they said he is gonna rest at least for one play now [Applause] seven play drive once again as they did on the opening drive during the week in motion lift and down he goes in the backfield Maurice Simon the junior on a Pompano Beach Florida got to him every time Barnett does that though you know there's a deep breath taking on the sidelines he's playing with a bad even injured in a pickup game a passing games pickup Sandlot games he had his knee scoped it's still not a hundred percent according to some people but today what he looks 100% to me is where that big knee brace you can see that right there on his MCL for the MCL and really wasn't effective against Ohio in the first game although they played in the midst of Hurricane Earl it hard at the 31-yard line and stop and it'll bring up pour it down the holes close so quickly with this Florida State defense if they can't have some daylight and then all of a sudden it's gone Loret estate is gone to its speed defense it's nickel package they've got shonky in the game as an extra defensive back connecting pass out of NC State on third alone he's up third and 14 time olders in the slide [Music] touchdown Wolfpack 31 yards to Eric Lee the sophomore out of Forest Hills North Carolina looking left all the way because they had home here at the second receiver so this time they bring leak and they send him out away from hope hope took the two defensive backs inside he cut outside bought the pass and touchdown they used hope that time as a decoy Scott Eyre went on for the extra point is it to the left so he's missed the field goal of mr. nettinger point my cocaine didn't happy but a 99-yard drive for the Wolfpack they were backed up head third and nine Barnett got a first down to halt and then a foot seven on the board here's the touchdown play and here's hope the all-american here's leek now when he runs like that everybody's going that way roll it you're going to see they use them almost as a decoy everybody's following home go to the back side there's leek left all alone touchdown NC state all-american whip without the ball and Jamie Barnett so far even though he's going down one time getting some pretty good protection from that offensive line a 99 yard drive for the Wolfpack on 10 plays that followed up a 7 play drive which ended up with Eric missing a field goal he missed the extra point so at 7 to 6 is cold - here Rosella flags - at the 21 out of it yard-line one was a block in the back against Florida State then Waldrop made the tackle or NC State but we'll sort this out a few hours on the plane holding on the offense we also have another holding on the offense we're going for 10 yards from the spot of file first I know Bobby Bowden's club is one that does take a lot of penalties and last year they were penalized more than any other in the ACC but he doesn't mind that we were the total yards NC State with the two drives now more than Florida State who had two quick hitters but Bobby says we make penalties yeah but we make a lot of things happen they run that no huddle offense doesn't bother him at all he Feaster down in and fell back for Travis minor and it's his first break of the afternoon this content at the 11-yard line and when keynotes to change things up along plenty of times like pockets Han he's going to try to get outside [Applause] Easter made the most of things that all of that at his own as a matter of fact out to the 23 and an ol first now talking with Bobby Bowden this weekend Mark Richt he says you know he says we're gonna give more responsibility to Chris Weinke we're gonna let him make more check with me at the line and check into things because last week look into the film against Texas A&M we stayed fairly conservative said but wanky was a hundred percent everyone where he changed it was the right call so they said we're going to give him more responsibility and you saw him checking out of a play right there that buzz be watching somewhere saying why didn't I get that responsibility in freedom the throws calls this time I was well covered by Harrison but when you 26 years old and you and I spent time with him yesterday down on the field there's just a confidence and a maturity that comes across with Wayne oh I guess there's no question about that I mean he had the career you know it in baseball and then finally came back to college and right now he's older than 10 NFL starters who were four and six last year combined actually the NFL that's it is amazing but he's a smart guy he's huge and a drafted waiting to happen then he grilled Jason Perry with free safety got there and had some fun at the end of the play the Feaster getting the playing time early for Travis minor that poor carries as we mentioned in the kickoff [Applause] see the game that miner had against Texas A&M in the kickoff plastic please drive five carries no yards and then the other guys didn't even touch it [Applause] he's Travis on the sidelines the shotgun get a swing out of the back [Applause] we're not going to get there brought down at the 27 and it will bring up fourth down for the No [Applause] good pressure that time by Greg Derek Julie got his big hands up there he's six six and has a big wide span they don't think they're going to get a lot of sex but they do want to change will Twinkies do it look at number three get that hand up in the air makes him throw a little bit behind him which slows him up a little bit [Applause] brings up fourth and six Keith Cottrell the sophomore started last year the story hold back at his own 28 yard line special teams one of the strengths of this Florida State good point hey and come up to the state of Kentucky go on his penis Cory hi sighs of 20 he's phenomenal and I think the penalty is against Florida State for being in the 2-yard circle they didn't give him them up room to carry him well waiting in a cat way didn't see but I think you're right there was a man within the 2-yard restricted area both wanted all the way back although there was some blockers down that with feeling around - let's wait and see I think folks that guy right there is terrific 68 yard on the punt return for Tori hope that's as good a punt return as you're ever going to see think another one all right first of all you can see they're in the two yard circle right there all right he catches it anyway no fair catch now watch the balance he has and the vision that he has as well gets to the outside and takes it all the way to the end zone and we'll take another look at that for the whole fact setting up for the extra point now remember deerwhat missed the first one this one though no problem of that 13 to 7 elf big plays big day the slogan for NC State my cocaine talks about the difference in it early last year when they didn't get big plays and now they're getting them but watch his balance and watch his vision looking to cut back here's the balance he breaks the tackle shows his strength now here is his vision he sees the blocker tries to give him goes he's being chased down for behind tries to stiff arm but it just says I'll outrun him Derrick Gibson the man who Amit initially missed the tackle he should have wrapped him up and that's the man who was closest to Torrey hall when he got to the end zone Rory Holt all-american 6-2 190-pound considered leaving to the NFL but stayed for days like this his mother passed away a couple of years ago right around Christmastime and he's dedicated his career since then to her wants to open up a window cleaning business and a barbershop eventually I think that'll have to wait my career at the NFL until after his days on Sunday you said both teams score a lot of points I said I hope that would be the Geisha be fun to watch so far it's been fun had been back so far as for Florida State actually that's going to take it [Applause] after the 25 [Applause] and this is a fired-up ol fact crowd and team at this point but you have to remember it is still very very early these fans getting caught up in that euphoria but I'll guarantee on the sidelines they're not they know this man can get it back in a hurry did so on the first play of the game a 74-yard strikes the Peter Warrick and then he went 63 yards Lavernia stole you never really know Kerry but it just seemed that Michael Caine was so comfortable and so relaxed yesterday when he was talking with his players at the pair to start this game [Applause] went into the cupcake war doing what he does best running right by the corner backing down to the 38 yard line just like that give a little out and dump to rip the coupon Harrison & Harrison bit that was a big time move right there how good is that 38 yards wide said before yarder earlier outside turned ahead full he got Harrison beaten his motto is if we're even I'm believing he went right behind him and got into the secondary phases of debt very nicely done and wanky had all the time in the world to make a decision to make the throw [Music] go to 45 in counting [Music] back to the line of scrimmage that's about it ladies Simon was senior at a Hickory North Carolina in there to hit him this is the defense for NC State that is much of a line they took a lot of heating the papers this weekend because they gave up 361 yards on the ground to Ohio yeah but Ohio runs a triple option offense which you don't see very much under they were ranked fourth in the nation last year until in Maryland here yes I beat my trans escaped as a solid children thank you mr. picah at the 32 and his second cook in the afternoon for the Wolfpack [Music] Rodney Redd was moved from cornerback to safety so they'd have to extra cover guys here now they're going to try to funneling one plays outside one plays inside read the safety was playing underneath just read his eyes all the way Winky is not looking off receivers and read just went with with his eyes to the football invade the second interception of the afternoon well he was so good against A&M it making trees and the coaches were so happy of but maybe some of that rookie love their jitters but just to make some while to make those reach for a rookie even though he is 26 years old as rashon spikes wrapped up in the backfield by Jerry Johnson Valente state has a game plan defensively where they're trying to keep guys from covering one-on-one they're involving other people to run it's a combination defense and taking some risk high-risk high-reward well they've got two interceptions but they've given up some great big plays the key to be touchdown to work tsuki turn over to two picks [Music] these days the touchdown on one stuff is live in that drive legs up has died off the cold [Music] at the 37-yard line Demetrios demons and a couple of other Florida State bachelors in there to run them out you know one of the things they were telling Barnett at practice when we were watching him this week in the fact in Florida State comes hard so you have to throw in rhythm you have to throw on time so he goes one two three four five steps drop step up throw he doesn't see where the pressure gets there if he does that all day it makes good decisions they're gonna have some success they're down in a long form for Michael Caine's offense right now where the goals come at me nope that was a first down for Devon Smith to tie ten if he could have just been held on to the football [Music] the senior out of a high speed or Carolina would love because that one back so here would we'll come on and find a way to defeat you there was a dangerous returned man [Music] company goals here was just us getting off quickly it's an NC state house inside the 15th of the 13 yard line the brakes going away the Lowell fact right now a 49-yard punt and obviously no return that's one of those situations where here was just trying to get it off quickly for fourth it yeah the block got there and by doing that he pushed it down the right side got a good good bounce to it here would stand out as a place kicker and then went to a punter and it's come on there's the offensive production so far look at all the place so far 196 with Florida State and the touchdown but already eight weighs over 20 yard he's a big play game yeah that's a high-risk high-reward offensive play the shotgun now [Music] they have a push down for the Seminole nifty moved to the outside and the speed getting around the corner every running back in high school should watch these kids in this game especially on the Florida State side as running backs spikes does it to but I mean they read their blocks and it make their cuts accordingly and explode once they see the opening minor had a good one to learn from Warrick Dunn that didn't have the face born that moves Louisiana but he made me another first down for the summon oh so they'll move to change and this is what my cocaine talked to you and I about he said we can't let them get the five yards the seven yards to ten yards at a clip and pretty soon they bust up a long one that's twice in a row they've shut down the middle but being the fine running back he is he reads it bounces outside he got a good block from Duggan's and took it up the sideline 12 yards on the carry no mood to change 47 left it to the end of the first quarter in China left-side different results this time he's dropped in the backfield as Bobby cotton a leader of the defensive Club for NC State ripped him up you know Chris Weinke is an older guy at 26 but he's not that experienced play baseball came back and actually just kind of worked on the sidelines at a practice last year but you see the two fumbles yet again from Texas a and a but two interceptions today so he's still trying to knock the rust off in the years that he was away with the other sport [Music] more than minute it was open over the middle of the field but Winkie was rushed by the pusher again NC State's game plan was to put some pressure on and they say we may not get the sacks but we noticed that when he does feel pressure he will throw the ball high at times now look at this I'm not telling you something Bobby cotton has gotten pressure they've gotten pressure from the inside that ball was high they outside to use what William Finnell the redshirt freshman really freshmen live action school by Travis minor but again they were chasing Weinke and when he threw it at his feet minor probably should have had it but it was a tough catch because he was a fourth throw the tough afternoon so far for Chris Weinke watch this again you know they're trying to set up the screen so the pressure naturally is going to come live backer gets in there see right around the knees actually had to reach back for he catches that ball to it it slows him up [Music] last one just gets it off Rory holders 1 1 back already [Applause] in a 36 yard line pretty good field position again for the Wolfpack after the 41-yard punt by Cottrell in the 13 yard return with Tori hope they're fired up as Colonel Finley in Raleigh will walk back ahead of the Knowles 13 to 17 sports hold of the Bowl Championship Series [Music] set to open up the second quarter in Raleigh Terry Gannon Tim Brant as you look at Chris Twinkie who at a marvelous start with a 74-yard touchdown pass on the first play from scrimmage to Peter Warrick but has struggled since then but the story of the game is NC State they really did dominate the quarter outside of those few big plays there's a look at Mark Richt up in the booth he's the offensive coordinator and of course there's interceptions didn't help but I'll tell you this NC State when you think in the last three quarters last year's game and this quarter have outscored Florida State forty eight to twenty seven and that's that coming West Rob explained overthrows the intended receiver like less dropping that up will expect Dave Hart to come in with a stat a little bit but we were had the privilege of doing last year's game down at Tallahassee and Florida State went up big and then NC State's with 35 points on those five touchdown catches by hold and then outscored them in that quarter so four straight quarters they've outscored it's a defense for Bobby Bowden met the secondary men take Cody especially at some comments this week that they were going to take Torry Holt out of this game and they were going to shut down Torre hold and obviously that's exactly what they're trying to do but hope I'm in a big day touchdown across midfield the Wolfpack moving the football at Willis's against this Florida State divas that's been the biggest supplies so far this pain [Music] had two big guys in there they ran the wide receiver off then they sent the full-back right down here in the flat brought him in right off the tackle out into the flat now watch the block he gets out front of him boom that's the big tight end Smith who gave him the block and let him pick up three extra yards so they moved to change again and NC state continues to move the ball effectively on offense well the Seminoles had what 12 days to get ready for this game and that's the worst thing that they could have if they they beat each other up in practice that's where they got all their injuries [Music] down to the 41 yard Robinson from Hilton Head high school in Hilton Head South Carolina well it is time now for our Aflac trivia question here's this week's question what ACC team as the client longest winning streak come back in a couple of minutes give you the answer great question [Music] it doesn't pay to play a bowl game that's the only hint motivate people about a yard shy of a first down I don't like people to be successful be able to answer these columns like jeopardy with you long as honey straight [Music] 13:28 in county and after the first play from scrimmage seven look like born state would have about 21 28 points just going into the second quarter but NC State Emily come up with a couple of big interception to stop their dry hope in motion this time the light in back of him well he got a hand on it but it was a little bit you know actually that ball should have been caught you think so and what a great round they sent him in motion and it been sending it to the outside watch this here he comes a motion right here now he's going to go and then come back like that watch this and just leave the defensive back there now watch see the ball a little bit behind him but it was thrown too hard too but Barnett Horan has been pretty sharp today you know that in 19 starts he's thrown for 200 or more yards 12 times he's going to get maybe that today well he goes on to put up the same numbers this year and next year in a senior year it would project to be three all-time ACC here what's dick inside the five boy Wolfpack getting the breaks [Applause] 35-yard punt Jackson will pull back now their salute with maybe making up for the mix extra point a little bit at the knoll trying to get some offense going now the right store 13 to 7 NC state on top of Florida State well 56 left until halftime so far the story has been the NC State offense and the two interceptions thrown by Chris Twinkie four of ten the two big pass plays to Peter Warrick and Lavernia is cold but that's the net and out to the 7-yard line a winky the starter of course one of the reasons because Dan Kendra went down with the knee injury in the spring Kendra the man who was supposed to take over as the quarterback look at the hit by Bradley Jennings that tore the ACL on Kendra's knee and would end his career as a quarterback at least he'll come back as a fullback a lot of people really were concerned because they said you know he hit him high they don't know how he injured his knee but what happened is with the impact his cleat was caught and twisted the beam and tore the ACL that had that offseason or over the summer had that populist of explosive [Music] hold on background maybe there is out to the 13 yard line many of the 14 Rodney read ran him out go back to Dan Kendra for a second we were talking with Mark Richt the offensive coordinator earlier this week and he says you know what he's gonna make a terrific fullback in the pros you really believe that as to this approach looked at him he's the prototypical fullback for the NFL that's a look at Mark Richt he's the guy who's orchestrated the offense for all the success they've had over the last several years he says Kevin will give great NFL fullback Cole's just shy of the first down on that last reverse the dangerous play to run they're going over to Bobby Bobby who at Scottish career Troy the head goes lanky still quite as you get there [Applause] you got this gum going on and we'll have to wait and see where they market look like he had enough forward motion to get there and he did it's a first down for the Knowles well there's no question that damn kendra is one of the great athletes on any college campus she just looked at the guy and what he is been able to do in all the tests and when he gets the NFL Combine as you said I think his stock will go up even further after his career at Florida State you got to feel sorry for the guy though coming out of high school number one quarterback in the country and never getting a chance to take the region [Applause] throw Warren but he has been overthrowing his receivers throughout the day is not been sharp [Applause] down in ten flags on the plate complete on Duggan's his first catch of the afternoon and a lot on the far side line across the 40 to the 41 Dugan's who can get up about 44 inches late and white made to stop a gain of 25 but we'll check out the flag bring it back offensively Florida State is really struggling right now Chris Weinke is just out of sync the offense is not concentrated to have a mental breakdown formation only offense will replay there this is going to drive bobby bowden crazy because these are just mental mistakes at Florida State normally does it make and if they have aspirations of another national championship Woodson certainly he does he think thinks this is as talented in as fast a club as he's ever had well this is the stuff that's going to kill so he's going to be upset Winky has missed his last four passes and Florida State has talked about trying to establish the ground game make Easter and minor a little bit of Easter today going on elsewhere it goes Travis long run out to the 24 yard line gain of 14 as you look at the power that time of Travis minor he had 34 carries against Texas A&M in a career-high 146 yards great freshman year surprised at his power look at him just dragging tacklers and keeping his feet he's got that low center of gravity but he was just dragging mcurtin who's 265 pounds with him ACC Rookie of the Year last season as he started as a freshman 46 yards on the afternoon it was six yards both Herot Winkies going to burn a timeout as the play clock was running down so it'll be third and one for the Seminoles with 1024 left until halftime when we come back to Raleigh Budweiser PVCs March presentation of college football brought to you by Ford Taurus Ford built to last Salomon Smith Barney let's get to work success is earn Burger King if you ask us it just tastes better and brewery fresh Budweiser reminds you fresh beer tastes better among the trees here in Raleigh carter-finley stadium which they are actually about to improve with the basketball arena going up right next door right now it's Chris Weinke trying to complete a third and one for the Seminoles and get some momentum in this first half they have given it all the way back to NC State after they opened up strong one for Mike I'm going to go straight ahead and knock down at the line of scrimmage we'll have to wait and see you know I don't think he got it Jerry neither he was met at the line of scrimmage depending on the mark I don't think he yet across or at least touch the 25-yard line and I don't think he got it they called the timeout and that's what they came up with to give it to Glenn which is he gonna give it to your pullback at 235 pounds and try to get the first down makes sense to me but that Wolf Pack line which has been very thin so far this year playing well today for levar Fisher tagged him pretty good we got the first he's up you look at the mark on the sidelines the mark and the chain says he had to get to the 25 the nose of that ball was just short so Mike's saying wait a minute with that chain gets shortened my cocaine was given the contract extension even though a lot of people called for his job late last year then he came back against Florida State and then won three in a row to end the season and go six and five and at least be bowl eligible but he said now that he's been given an extension he feels more pressure than he did a year ago to prove that they made the right decision almost had him for their ghostier work up too far sideline driven out of bounds about the 40-yard line so the second time we've seen Bobby Bowden and Mark Richt go to that play the first time don't Laverne E is Colt well you're not losing any speed with Peter Warrick I'll tell you that now the big guy coming our way he's going to try to draw all the attention now here comes number 9 war the Heisman Trophy Canada here's a guy that's averaged 18 yards every time he touches the ball for his career got that speed he could break the tackles outrun the folks [Music] first down look at what the Noles have done it and she stayed up around me first down minor out to the 45 tomorrow at 3:00 Eastern here on ABC we'll bring you the comfort classic in the Brickyard crossing golf course in Speedway Indiana Senior PGA event hey Lauren Lee Trevino Gil Morgan defending champion David Graham by the way r1 and Morgan have six wins apiece this year on the Senior Tour that's tomorrow on ABC ninth play of the drive the Weinke in the knoll plenty of time again winky with a receiver opened he was wide open and he just threw up behind him they took the full-back out the added a receiver they spread the field he's just not growing well right now he knows he struck them brides in right now now we gave the a black trivia question of moments ago what ACC team as the current longest winning streak my hints yeah your hip is the hips of the census okay to go to a bowl game North Carolina State has won more games now with a win this year against Ohio and the tree to close out the year big third down here for NC State [Applause] Linton with a straight drop complete almost picked off by Rodney Reddy's already intercepted one of Winkies passes there again read the safety plate underneath and waken somehow it doesn't steal [Applause] with the longest history in the ACC you know there's foot 35 points in the last three quarters against Florida State last year and have not lost since the Maryland Virginia East Carolina Ohio usually gets Michael Caine will tell you that backstory hope racing back back to the seven don't know about that decision and let's check in the New York studios John Saunders see what's coming up at half-time the milestone for Joe Pye he says yeah maybe someday I'll appreciate that right now I just don't have done great coach he's had some of the greatest teams you'll ever see if they're at Penn State I helped make some was all-america cook he gives you a lot of credit as a matter of fact as a 54-yard seven yards I'm not sure he should have fielded that one though hold back a head for a couple trying to get some breathing room with a 22 inch folding until app critical error by the all-american Hulk go to field that ball it was clearly gone into the end zone for a touchback and he picked it up on the 2 yard line inside the 2 and tried to return it and I think it doing that he actually injured himself took a shot on his thigh but a bad mistake backed up state to the playoff now he's back in there three receivers set to the near side way action broken up that's a great play Clemont Thomas broke it up with a dime if you hear with the fans thing Vanek Thomas was ride victims too early on the back take a look at you make me call you tell me if this pass interference there's the hands on there's the left hand using it to get leverage there's no question he's on him he was there too early it should have been a flag for passing appearance come for once the fans are right I guess well as using that left hand for leverage and normally when that happens they'll throw flags but then he also kind of wrote his back play clock down to water Barnett Chris Coleman that's a play that maybe you see some of the residual effect of my cocaine was saying he had that opportunity once last week against Ohio and I'm sure he's going to tell him when he gets to the sideline you know you've got to tuck that away and run with it definitely could have picked up the first one of the things that makes Jamie Barnett an effective quarterback that has allowed him to do what he's done in the ACC is that the threat to run i don't think mike wants to talk to him they're playing too well right now NC State played a heck of a hat here wood back in his own answer a great field position keys to the 31-yard line so Florida State with the best field position of the day see and this goes back to that decision at hole made to field that punt on the to see it gives them good field position down you're exclusive home for primetime NFL action Sunday night live at 8:15 on ESPN Drew Bledsoe taking on Peyton Manning is New England tackles Indianapolis this week and then Monday night on ABC Sports Monday Night Football 8 o'clock Eastern Time Steve Young Jerry Rice and the 49ers take on the Washington Redskins with a new quarterback this week on Monday Night Football Redskins had a great first half against the Giants last week and then Gus brought through those two interceptions to start the second half with the Redskins in a hole they eventually lost and nor Turner didn't waste any time changing quarterbacks going to young Trent Green out of Indiana flag on the play we'll find out what it's about for muddled cherry on the defender that's a ten-yard penalty from the previous spot we play today it's actually a great French he stays sure is the Knowles had the ball to 32 after Feaster caught it at the 40 and brought it back eight yards so they'll punt away again and look at the big plays that the Wolfpack has enjoyed today 68 yards on the return by a hole the interception right at the goal line and then Rodney red coming up with one you're what what a difference this is made of beauty back to the 38 to find a hole with a big return tackled at the 23-yard line so they made nine yards so it turns out to be a break for Florida State in fact [Music] 55 yards on the punt sister brought it back 29 as soon as you said there's a lawn the difference a lot of times that long punch and set up a great return because the cover teams they overrun their coverage gives a little scene back there two ball hangs for a while now see these guys of all over run they're over on the right side all he needs is an ally gets two blocks and it takes it all the way back to the 23 I'll kick your coverage so the penalty then they pick up nine yards and now they start the series inside the 25 on a shotgun and mine almost came back to get it that's a ball that had to slip out of the hand of Chris Winky wake he's got to be wondering what the heck is going on look he's even shaking his head I mean the ball was not thrown with his normal velocity I think because he was waiting for him to clear a route so you'll see him hesitate the ball just kind of comes out of his hand but it's a dead duck up at its time the Winkies time to get it back for of 14 on the day completely to the 13 yard line and close to a first down Dugan's with his second catch of the afternoon the junior from Tallahassee one thing about Florida State and Winky these guys are in complete control at all times even when things aren't going well you look at the time and you say well you got 707 remaining in the half there's no panic in Florida State I don't think outs in he's even thinking that he's going to get his shot today unless the score gets big because when keys to God and blinky is even though he's struggling he threw that last was velocity they're stilling to close this ball game even though they trail he's got the helmet on he's ready just in case to develop initially but the second effort down to the southern yard line it's been moved by Travis minor or shoddy streets number 98 eventually made sure he was on the ground what's this here comes miner he gets hit and that takes that momentum just use it to turning and so he spit it like a whirling dervish in the line picks up a couple of extra yards second down there goes Travis again this time to the outside touchdown Florida State but there is a flag back at the 8 yard I'm going to be holding with Nick Franklin the wide out and they didn't even need it [Applause] now Franklin the tight end on the right side of the line didn't need it with minor speed holding hold me offense ascertaining only from the previous spot replay the down Franklin was way wide outside here he is at the top of your screen 81 all right now there it goes minor around him and Franklin tackles the outside contain man he's flood control but minor was already around the corner mistakes coming back it hurt the Knowles for penalties 35 yards one of which was on the defensive end and was a key one inside NC State Territory NC State to keep that and under chose the receiver at the 20-yard line the tight end my rib Jackson was open Bobby cotton was he had a beat on the wanky - he came he's the one to finally hit him but when he saw him cut back he was thinking oh I'm going to get it all time lick here a wink he had time but it was time on the move he was having to hop around back in the pocket wake he's awfully mobile for his size he's 65 to 30 but I think that time he panicked he turned around he saw cotton coming just tried to throw the backside this is a huge third down for NC State and Florida State when NC state defense that read all week in the papers how bad they were 61 yards on the ground Ohio this is a different offense though from Florida State wanky had to take a timeout or he was going to get another flag for delay of game third and almost 16 for wanky in the nose when we come back Tech leading 13 to 7 in the key third down coming up for Florida State right now it's third and 15 and this is what Winky has done one of the last nine not what he hoped for came in expecting to open it up there's a Florida State team that has been there before and linky in the kickoff classic against Texas A&M with all the adversity kept his poise kept his cool came back to run the offense in the second half very well [Applause] plenty of time over the middle intercepted intercepted in the end zone by number nine Jason Perry the second interception of the day for the Wolfpack defense down at the goal line and the third overall well the second for the safety and red almost had a third but they came up he was trying to locate the safeties they were playing soft he thought then he went for the post pattern and all of a sudden here comes Terry Terry and red have been playing underneath all day now watch this it's the corner coverage but he released them to the safety number nine Gary and then the ball is out front of them a little bit Gary makes the pick that's two interceptions for the safeties one for Harrison and red almost had another one rinkie has locked on the pure Warwick time and time again and his ex defense has had at least one defender right there with him rashon spikes tripped up at the line of scrimmage but he falls ahead for a gain of about 40 Michael Caine would like nothing more than the C NC State knock off for five yards six yards four yards five dogs and eat up the last five and a half minutes of this first half they get some points at the end of it don't let that Florida State offense back on the field glory hole split wide right with a Hamrick inside in the slot there goes hope in motion and they move them around a lot in that backfield and the full-back jeff butler across the 25 to the 26 yard line that's a nicely designed play they send holt motion sent him deep bring the full-back underneath of them so in other words the wide receivers included the all-american are taking everybody deep then they just bring him underneath them into the open area now he saw state used pulled as a decoy earlier on the touchdown to leak in the end zone two defendants went right with Tory hope and Eric Lake wide open in the flat [Applause] there goes hope you motion to get across on the opposite side of the field open underneath hope for the big game again in Barnet finding Cory hope almost done every play now for the pack out to the 37 yard line he gives him at least one walk even if he goes to a different receiver that's Corey Simon in stereo down on the field watch what they do with hope they take him in motion to the left then soon as he breaks up feel to cut back to the right under the linebackers look at this and then Barnett knows where he's going and just gets it out in front of him first down he knows when you get man coverage he can outrun him by going in motion and then coming back across the opposite way the man's covered him now Florida State may have to make an adjustment on that because they've been able to run that throughout the first back [Applause] now next Saturday live at 3:30 Eastern Time here on ABC Sports most of you in this region will see the Clemson Tigers take on Virginia had the big win against Auburn today against Maryland some of you Latinos in Florida Missouri and Ohio State other games on 10th BYU and Washington Texas in Kansas State so check with your cable operator or your satellite system to get those games on pay-per-view college football in full swing here on ABC [Music] Jamie Barnett and I like the way things have gone so far there was some concern that it wasn't a game condition after that knee injury and coming in and really couldn't tell a whole lot in the performance against Ohio because it was a beaming when she had to run the ball almost exclusively but Barnett's had a tremendous first half here and will as a matter of fact he's 9 for 17 152 yards but the big stat is zero intercepts no turnovers and does have the 1 touchdown and he's been knocked down in sac but it really hasn't been the pressure you'd expect from Florida State an offensive line doing a great job for the Wolfpack with the seat before he Simon walking off after the injury we're just talking about with Barnett and of course to me out of all those numbers the biggest stat is zero turnovers one sack on the afternoon for the Seminole big numbers for Holt plus the punt return [Applause] first in tennis a 37 again plenty of time yes all over Torey hold at the 20-yard line [Applause] Dexter Jackson got his hat take it off and he is down at injured [Applause] Carrie this was just a fly pattern they had the corner and the safety coming over now watch he's just going to try to outrun him the balls already in the air now watch they're looking back to the pole and he just runs right up the back of Torry Holt so the interference is on Mario Edwards who is the Nickelback they had him doubled and by looking back for the ball and with hope slowing up for the catch he just ran right up his back pass interference Edwards coming back off that Eurobarometer suspension along with Shawn he got in the back the Troy Saunders and dreaming needs you on the field while we have a moment with step away to see what's coming up it's an ABC program [Music] by the way Tim Brant rides around a minivan right absolute the whole family event for you will just see Dexter Jackson up and walking off the field there's Mario Edwards Troy Saunders having the problems at cornerback beating a couple of times and the interference calls against Texas A&M Edwards getting the playing time today Saunders started but right now Edwards not faring so well well you mentioned Salter struggled against A&M he had a holding penalty of pass interference and was spun around a couple of times but he kept him in there because Saunders who came back as you said from that suspension really doesn't have a grasp of everything they're trying to do defensively I think that time he was in the right coverage he was just leaning back didn't play the ball right finally automatic first down for the Wolfpack Ray Robinson number five along with Harold Jackson out of the i-gos Robinson wrapped up at the line of scrimmage Carrie Bryant number 14 a defensive end a senior out of Marathon Florida in on this stop we were told actually moments ago and he was going to be out with a shoulder injury in treated earlier this week [Music] is back in there and he made to stop 337 and Counting in the first half [Music] in motion at all time [Applause] [Music] [Applause] Shawn McCullough they went with the hole they drew back to the vacated area he is a big guy who six for 250 picks up 32 yards for watches you're right hope again everybody's watching it little play-action they said hold out of the area and underneath here comes your tight end Devon Smith and look at he gets rolling and watches yes sir he's got the crowd going he is a Hall watch Dybbuk practices she really has so much fun just playing the game Florida State gonna take the time out look at the Wolfpack players trying to get the crowd out of their seats Terry again Michael Caine's got to be thinking is this is not a normal situation when you play Florida State but he's got to be thinking I don't want to score too quickly here there's still 3:18 to play in the first half he don't want to give the ball back to the Seminoles at the same time you've got a field goal kicker if you take your chance running the ball a couple times and good stop it was already missed an extra point already missed a field goal he can't be all that confident I'd love to get a touchdown on the board before the end [Music] the other five touchdown catches tory ho we've all talked about it we ask Tori to describe them to us here's what he said [Music] Thurston was a reroute Jamie found touchdown second one was a nice flag route Jamie found me again touchdown the turban was just a quick Street speed touchdown the fourth touchdown was a reroute Jamie found me endzone touchdown the film was a short flag route I was all alone in the endzone chart did a good job of finding me touchdown I was tired too I was moving around all day with linebackers and safety words out for the group for me he says here's another guy he had for fun sit in a room and watching those touchdowns today he's got four catches 62 yards also has that 88 yard return on the punt but still I say the most important thing today for NC State no penalty so turnovers here again threatening with 318 play in the first half and they poked them around to it but it mosted much of the day now Barnet so he wanted to throw to Holt Tony Bryant got there before he could release the football hold was hoping to they were gonna run that blank or screen that was successful early early a whole lap and he knows he was open the one thing they told Barnett grow in rhythm don't wait otherwise he'll catch it for some reason he held the ball right now Holt open but instead he see it's something he wants him to release and give to that pump fake and that caused the sack he may have been pump faking downfield to create some reaction downfield but he had hold wide open and mother nature can't wait second at 18 now and hold back in potion no time again and here comes an old effect this is what everyone expected Jerry Johnson and Corey Simon applying the pressure up the middle the third sack of the afternoon they got to this is a jailbreak nothing barn hen again watch it I mean they're shooting the gaps right away and the linebacker comes on the Blitz that's 3:45 straight up the middle he gets cut off at the end but Johnson gets there too high him and all of a sudden Florida State was all over him NC State takes the timeout that's their last of the first half Florida State [Music] bad news is that they've lost about 60 yards the good news is the Box melted down to 70 [Music] we do games with Florida State involved almost every time when you talk to the opposing coaches they make one point we got to keep it going scores and we the Andrews Club plus any a turnover bring it back right now they're not even in here which Wayne I mean 41 yards you're not comfortable with him there just a 44 yarder earlier the game [Music] three sacks allowed last year and three so far today now do you get greedy and going to the end zone with a shot to hold or do you try to hit him where he get into field goal range and maybe break a few tackles his for I say you go and try to hit him somewhere on the field set up the field goal he breaks a couple get a shot and he's takes an average of almost 11 yards to go on third down for the state in less than a yard the Florida State defense going out with the Cusack's on this Drive trying to get their crowd involved on the line of scrimmage they're gonna blow it dead though there were Flags all over the place I played it fool anybody they said no leak and hold down the right side tried to throw back on - who it's against pitbull and coach mitts on the offense they whistled that dead before the play even got underway [Music] first penalty for NC State on the afternoon not only was it an ugly play a poor execution they got the pedals they hate when that happens right sector however with 210 left of the first half until Michael came that that's when he did his first penalty in the offing mistakes of her Florida State in this afternoon this has been a terrific first half oh what a gorgeous day to Holly in fact you go back four or five quarters between the [Applause] underthrown going to be picked off edwards bringing it back the 40 the 32 yard line and that was exactly what you were talking about now Florida State with just under two minutes to try to put some points back on the board after the interception and the 15-yard return by Mario Edwards you're playing Florida State and tried to do too much Barnett was wrapped up and tried to make something happen if you watch this now they want him to throw when he's ready and then not hold it at all but look all right now he's wrapped up right there by Johnson and still tries to throw feet it doesn't have any any power on it falls under thrown and then it's a 50-yard return we're gonna say Mario Edwards was out just outside the 40 yard line so a minute 55 first content and winky out of the gun quick out he's they overthrew Feaster [Music] Moll may have been catchable but it certainly wasn't well thrown NC State got some pretty good pressure on wanky that's been forcing him to throw badly all day he just hadn't been in sync either keep in mind border state trailed at halftime against Texas A&M too because of mistakes not to cook the physical town we receiver sent this foot the backs out of the shotgun away key forced out of the pocket he's going to go down back to the 42 at defensive front of NC State shocking the know this was supposed to be the thin part of the defense for the loss of 17 Bobby cotton and Greg Derrick drove Winky back yeah but they got the push from the inside first and then all of a sudden the outside defensive ends 36 and three that's your defensive ends right there and all of a sudden boom Derrick and cotton get a pretty good lick on Winky they wanted the fumble as well and didn't but it's the loss of 17 defense is dominating in the last eight nine minutes or so Bobby cotton had five sacks last year he had two hurries last week he's the defensive captain and Greg Derrick crow Scouts like him a lot he's big he's quick a little bit inexperienced but he can make things really happen whistles blowing a dead delay a game against Florida State too much time to play clock and run out Bobby Bowden's Club a number of mistakes including the three interceptions and six penalties so far for the Seminoles Bobby's not feeling well today he's got a cold evening but I guarantee he'll and worse right now he's gonna light him up in the locker room the cold is not the worst of his problems with 46 seconds left mahmu my point being he's not in a good mood anyway he was living in a good mood running against Texas A&M either to set up the screen the minor walk down at the 44-yard line 24 seconds as it ticks down they'll stop the clock all right here's what's interesting though you've got Sebastian Janikowski your field goal kicker who's hit a 56 yarder he had a couple of worth 60 in high school he could get a 70 yarder they say they feel comfortable that he could get a 70 yarder nights anyway that was my point they'll stop the clocks if they get a first down but they can't stop it right now to get him on the field the ball is out of town and the clock is going to run out it is not the end of the first half that bobby bowden hope for now well executed like cocaine with the lead 13 to 7 we go to New York John Saunders Todd Blackledge [Applause] [Music] there again and Tim Brant this is what's a place in the first half Laurie Holman for catchin a 62-yard breaking tackled they used them all over the field in motion they put him a different spot also and a 60 yard 68 yard punt return to the touchdown again breaking tackles once he got down the sideline watch this he's got one rover it's one skip on and he's gone because out runs Derrick Gibson to the end zone and I mean to tell you against Florida State he has had huge games the last two games 16 receptions 230 yards almost 15 yards of catch and 5 touchdown an NC state remember they deferred after winning the coin toss and both you and I thought that was a mistake may have been that touchdown pass to Warrick on the first play from scrimmage but now though he seemed to open up the second half Ray Robinson to freshman he decides to bring it back out touch back that's the rule where I got a bounds at the 32 yard line Derrick Gibson made the tackle it may have to save the touchdown morgan stanley dean witter first-half stats very telling 203 yards on the ground excuse me in the air for Florida State but the three interceptions the key they Twinkie threw no question about it they had success and of course Barnett threw this one late didn't really hurt him this has been impressive as well third down conversions Barnett I'm sure they told him at halftime don't try to do too much you have to throw in rhythm throw on time you don't want sacks and you certainly don't want turnover good field position for NC State now to open up the second half Eric bleak in motion to the nearside with a shotgun Barnett under pressure to cut back to hole flags on the play out to the 33 yard line grown in the area they normally call holding see if it was holding against NC State looked like it may have been a thought it was facemask at the end or two flags down so tonight looks like they grabbed hold facemask [Music] that it is watch hold again he drives them off comes back and now starts to slant in watch him he'll break this first tackle but there's the facemask penalty Mario Edwards with the interference I don't know why Edwards is saying what's wrong with you that bad Paul when he had his face man I saying it should have been 15 yards well I do agree with that I do agree with that it should have been a five Edwards was flagrant a lot of times you go up high grabbed a helmet end up with your fingers in the space man didn't look like he held onto it like he had him for a moment and then let go but Edwards not only were the interference call earlier but now the facemask penalty did intercept the pass though and brought it back 50 yards in the first half it's worse than 10 it was 48 now after the penalty when Sean spikes hit in the backfield and drops not going anywhere there at the beginning of the game we said that we wanted to count the number of places that Torry Holt would line up and how they would use them he's gone wide and sephora got sixteen times in the slot nine times he's been in motion seven times you see the success that he had what he's in motion because now you've got the defensive back if he's in man chasing him all the way across the field but he's had a big day they continue to move on and he's playing with a great deal accomplished my cocaine that's the plan all year long but especially in any one area Arnett off a play-action almond open over the middle and a first down to the 41 yard line of Florida State cake OD on the coverage in they hit but not before moment got enough to move the chain Chris Coleman claimed with a sword he today yet two catches last week and I mean they are playing them soft I don't know what take Cody's doing out there he's their best cover guy he's only a sophomore but he was playing very soft out there waiting for the push maybe the sprint on the poster flag but instead he brought it back under and made the catch Bowman at 14 catches a year ago and a touchdown catch for NC State back near the [Music] or the wolfpack Rashaad spikes skipped up man over the left side of the line a good point about Coleman I mean he's not Tory home he's not the first look all the time but he does average 19 yards a catch for his career and that's awfully impressive look at the numbers for Barnett only the one interception that came late in the first half did not come back to haunt him at all even though the Wolfpack were inside of Florida State Territory of time holman you tend to forget about him with all the attention paid to Tory hope was solid receiver midotaur hijo came back to get it and he's got another wolf pack first down inside the 30 presents of mine from Jamie Barnett he was under a lot of pressure from Jerry Johnson what's this dad pressure coming that you said from Johnson but also they were pitched me from the outside so he when he stepped up almost went right into Johnson then he had Holt isolated on the linebacker so black Lee couldn't cover oven they got the intercept are deathly completion of the course down you know Bobby Bowden lit him up at naptime I wouldn't want to be a part of that Seminole dressing room to listen to Bobby's comments at halftime but so far NC State Robinson a step away from breaking them and how important would it be for the Wolfpack momentum and confidence wise schemata the first job in the second half and put something on board Terry I think everybody is in stadium was waiting to see what would happen the Florida State came in after the half because if she said honey Felton was not happy in the first half are you sorry well they were all they weren't really sharp they're gonna come out they're gonna be sharp the second an NC State right now it's taking the tool Nicky Andrews you saw a moment ago I had to make some changes at halftime but he's got a defense that's banged up this linebacking core especially [Applause] moment close quickly but another good game for the back to the 21 yard line Ray Robinson gettin a good look at the freshman at a 22 yard touchdown run against Ohio in the first game of the year watch hold on this play this is your all-american he knows the runs coming your way so you want a good a good block area zone Rackley just enough shields him off get the position on him and keeps him away from his long period [Music] lay the drive and NC State may have found another tailback to go along with her shots like nothing this time Dexter Jackson got a hole of his feet to yards behind the line of scrimmage right now Rory hole is playing every phase of the game on all cylinders fantastic and when you compare them with the Heisman Trophy candidate Peter Warrick who's playing with a bad ankle today right now you've got to give the advantage to home as far as receptions goes 6 2 then you look at total guards 113 course work had a hunch 74 those in the very first play of the game and then of course the touchdown to work in the punt return 88 yards to hold now brings up fourth in a long three Rory hole comes over to the sideline because Michael came and try a 39 yard field goal stop here would mix an extra point in the 44 yard or in the first map it's just barely in his brain very good but it is good wanted in right inside the right upright you believe this no momentum certainly didn't switch coming out of the locker room it's still in the Wolfpack hands 16 to 7 and maybe the biggest upset of the year brewing in Raleigh for NC State they just kicked a field goal they're up 16 to 7 the bad news glory hope you see him going to the locker room moments ago trying to get word on why he made that trip he doesn't look hurt when he was run it in there he looked ok could be an equipment change or maybe just to get something retakes look at the last six quarters NC State over Florida State 51 to 28 a lot of that credit goes to my cocaine he is just built confidence in these guys he's got to believe it in this program he's got to believe it in what I was trying to do you can see they clay before confidence now [Music] Burnie his goals of his Oni [Applause] to the 27 now Sunday night on ESPN beginning at 8:15 Eastern Time what a great quarterback matchup Drew Bledsoe on the Patriots taking on Peyton Manning and the Indianapolis Colts and then on Monday Night Football 8:00 Eastern Time Steve Young and the 49ers taking on the Redskins in Washington on Monday Night Football ABC big story there Terry is Trent Green a guy who's never started the game is starting at quarterback for the Redskins desperat being benched after his performance last week against the Giants I guess money isn't everything huh a big contract and that's gonna take a seat [Music] and it was tipped at the line especially in the backfield Gregg Derrick with the pressure on and Winky they've kept that pressure on all afternoon and Winky has not looked sharp at all Gregg Derrick we were watching the practice the other days at the top of your screen the guy stands 6 foot 6 he's got a huge wingspan hard to throw so his biggest Lincoln is you've got great Derrick who's even bigger watching the practice the other day was the post out they love this guy he's inexperienced but he's big he's very quick first down out of the 39 yard line oh yes so quick to get to the hole and certainly one of the most talented and heralded recruits ever at Florida State had a great freshman year as we said to 623 yards also had 11 touchdowns looks like Marvin's minister is the man down on the field that they're working on we'll work on him for a few moments we'll take this opportunity to step away be back to Raleigh in a minute [Music] ABC sports presentation of college football brought to you by the new dodge it's about change State Farm Insurance like a good neighbor State Farm is there mitos for quality service at your neighborhood might us today and drifty car rental great cars great rates in over 70 countries around the world best of all it's thrifty great one going on here in Raleigh is the Wolfpack lead and we've been told that it wasn't an equipment change no it wasn't an injury but nature may have been calling it happens as he just made his way back from the NC State locker room got to take care of - there goes Travis manners Bobby cut and had him wrapped up slowed him down and got some help from Tony Scott Bobby cotton the leader of this defensive one and there's Jeff Snipes the defensive coordinator with a potent offensive coordinator who told us his plan was to change his defenses maybe take some chances but to continue fresh plants and sweat and he's good doing that we've seen him play drinking sold we've seen him play man for man we've seen him play combinations done he's gotten burnt once or twice but for the most part he really has to keep wiki and the way he's used to safety when they've had two interceptions Sunday no long [Music] right and white could have been picked off Ron bogans the intended receiver but the man who had the best chance of making that catch was blatant white a sophomore outside linebacker you know Chris Weinke right now his point he's shaking his head inside it's got to be eating his insides out because he's 6 for 20 he's got one touchdown but three interceptions he got away with one there that should have been picked off Mark Richt trying to figure something out upstairs they're late now to his quarterback this might be one of those he got receivers open Winky has just not been sharp yet the middle alignment [Applause] this one's takeoff point Harrison an interception [Applause] in the afternoon for the Wolfpack again the balls overthrown and it's just easy pickins he was charged there saying all you have to do is hit him it's a shotgun formation - trying to give Weinke as much time as he needs now stopping right there and look he was wide open but the balls overthrown boy I tell you soon as you start yelling balls whoo look at all the red jerseys trying to pick up a white jersey great recovery of blocking on the return Harrison brought it back 35 yards the fourth interception of the day for the pack and the third interception on third down key third downs for Florida State rashon spikes ahead on the left side is a flag on the play though you know you have to wonder if it's confusion if it's an adrenaline flow whatever it is but if you look at this he comes down he is wide open there's nobody within 4 or 5 yards of them and then the interception because the ball is so high Boyd Harrison's just sit back there playing no replay first down it will bring up first and five now and Bobby Bowden searching the sideline they had adversity against Texas A&M and he said he he looked into the eyes of his players and he found some leaders they need him now I'll tell you something else too he just walked up to Marcus out soon and talked to him the second team quarterback will keep an eye on him they may go that way ridiculous Ricky Collins the redshirt freshman white out in now for the Wolfpack gets the call inside the 20 to the 19th Gary Johnson may have tripped him up initially but the Wolfpack starting to believe and I think there may be more people in this stadium right now them equipment the game started Oh Gary I guarantee you nobody on the Florida State sideline is panic you still have just under eight minutes to play third quarter it's still early and you're only a touchdown and a field goal behind they can get that in a heartbeat at Florida State so they are not shanigan but I think Bobby Bowden knows they better screw on their hats down playing football is it could be at home there goes Tori hope again in motion looking for him he's got him open behind and want to catch my hole unbelievable what a catch by Tori hole they'll move the teens again there's your all-acc wideout he's more than that Gary he's an all-american and a high draft package I prepped it waitin to happen you've seen two of the best today in Holt and Warwick two of the best in the nation but with hwang keys troubles Warwick hasn't been able to get much going except for the first play of a game again they're sending him out wide the outruns the defensive back actually again he's locked on the linebacker and that is one whale of a catch [Music] wrapped up or a Simon getting his first start today for the seminal Barnett always looks the Tory hold first but you have to give them credit every time three the linebacker has been isolated at home they have found tourism green immigrants ripping athletes and he's got great speed six three 230 it can really run but he covered Tory hope [Applause] maybe the key from our Nets and being able to look at home in oil for protection he's got to the line I think most expected this defense in front of the Seminole filled all day turn it through his hand oh my god Jamie Barnett and Michael the tight end maybe just over to him a little bit before I tell you what they were both the Pope was open to he's a guy emotion I'm gonna ask you to stop this in one second all right stop it right there here's one receiver and it holds over here by himself on the left side - guys wide open it was a shirt touchdown a short touchdown and watch this he just can't field it over his head so she loses it actually when he lunges for went right through his Hank well he's been out with a hamstring pull - pull - and it looks like that's what happened he tried to lunch and just couldn't get that [Music] broken up nice play by Demetriou Steven the middle linebacker who steps into some big shoes Billy knows of Gerald Bush yeah they've been running this play a lot Steven just pulled he's gonna act like he's going out and he's coming back hand right under the linebacker Stevens's locked in on Barnett the whole time reach the pass makes a nice play on it an old stop the Wolfpack on third down brings up fourth and nine and they'll place ahead 28 yard he'll go exemplary way [Music] wide to the right 44 yarder that he missed earlier he missed an extra point troubles continue for air would [Music] Aaron with the Miss and that was a big miss for NC State because if you go up to nineteen to seven at this point a touchdown of Hugh goal wins it for Florida State otherwise he had two touchdowns that would have to win of course a lot of time left to though Jim 638 left in third quarter down this two field goals and an extra point to get it a 39 yard field goal wanky two of his last 15 with three interceptions bounces out up to the 28 yard line they've worked Travis minor a lot this afternoon to his Winky has struggled just like they did against Texas A&M that nearly has many cherries so you look at Marcus out soon the backup quarterback who had a conversation with Bobby Bowden moments ago on the sidelines and he was just warming up second to go with Garrett Jones second and along too after the eight yard gain by Travis minor Scott makes the tackle but miner may have gotten the first down anyway out to the 31 and he did they move the chains [Music] this is an NC state secondary that has played extremely well today maybe as well as they've ever played with the test the Florida State Florida State knows that NC State has played well today too but there's still no panic they know it's still early and remember they trailed at halftime against Texas A&M and came back and won that one that's their belief right now place to town at the 32 up the middle tough warning that he gets out to the 35 yard line they've kept it on the ground in this Drive [Music] that's something we may see throughout the rest of the game from Florida State when away Chris Weinke has been off with his passes never gonna see Florida State go totally to the run obviously but I'm about maybe changing course a little bit now waking gonna pass though on second down get a man wide open at the 38 yard line Warren cutting back across the field Warren dropped at the 44 yard line Warwick the junior out of Bradenton Florida had the 74-yard touchdown catch to open up the game he's been quiet since because when Kia struggled he is so dangerous he's in a slot the second receiver in always the most dangerous spot and it's not him underneath but he's most dangerous after he makes the catch now I thought he was going to give away the first year because he's got to get across that yard strike he gave Brown picked up some blockers picked up the first before he was finally taken down by Tony Scott he is so fast and elusive and always dangerous [Applause] they actually run fake going deep going for the home run to cold not about well-covered lloyd arason who just picked off a pass on the last tribe by florida state step for step with cold you don't see wanky under throw receivers very often his problem is he overthrows him and when he does it in the field of play he's throwing picks to the centerfielder you can live with it to the sidelines it's going in the second row sure and defensively NC State has done a lot of that they played too deep or they played a man free a lot today a free safety mr. miner Moses quickly up to the 47 for this NC State defense if your mic go came though you have to worry at some point about it wearing down with all the pressure P really well is a young defense so number of questions well it is last year the state defense was much improved against the one as a matter of fact it gave up 227 yards to game two years ago just a hundred thirty again and this year we even hope it will prove on that although Ohio took a big chunk of the first game what's different performance today the for winking play-action under cushion that's a way down at the 48-yard line why do you read number eight he was at a big day the strong safety for the Wolfpack chased him to that point and a number of Wolfpack tacklers joined the club carry they're just having fun around here in NC State right now they're just teeing off guys are taking shots again they bring pressure up the middle and look at your outside with cotton and again you've got Derrick back there there's Derrick misses the tackle but put the pressure then red holds him up in guys name just coming in to finish I snap control and he gets that out of the way myself as he tried to feel the wall inside the three yard line at the to NC State recovers but Huff was crushed that's actually scary you can do that hit up here whoa [Music] there was number 28 Chris hope I believe to take a look and it was you know that ball had not hit the ground yet he's fielding the ball I wondered if oh that hurts here that ball had not hit the ground which means they have to give him he was very close but it was oddly close so call at this point Huff he doesn't care about a penalty flag he didn't care about anything but getting his wits about him well NC state care though because now the back inside the three so you want to play college football team first intend the Florida State to the local bank holding complete broken up nice Derrick Gibson timed it well Gibson to sophomore out of Miami Maggiore all talking the official about the Gibson or someone else look out see if that gets Florida State ball and see if they they take it up a notch you start flying around and playing on the edges people say but you know I hit like that can do that to him see - I think they got away with football looking down to the pack not going anywhere over the left side out maybe to the four or five yard line it'll bring up a key third down now for both teams as Florida State tries to keep it an NC State back within the 10 and make it tough to punt [Music] the Andrews and his defense went back to the drawing board at halftime whether they are in a second bar never picks up the first down to the 15-yard line what a huge play for the pack so if you play a defense to say the last thing that's going to happen is Jamie Barnett it was just folks in the offseason and their questions about his knee and he passed up some rope and once before you just don't want to cover it that is designed quarterback draw did not hesitate at all and picks up the first down and the first time if they've run it this afternoon if you're making Andrew as you say as you said get an injured quarterback to a certain extent and they haven't run it all day breaking all tendencies great call by the Wolfpack [Music] hold it in at the 30-yard line a gain of 15 for Smith who started the last three games a year ago at defensive end Jamie may have taken a hit zip it just a little bit favoring the left leg the one that he had autoscopic surgery on still wearing that knee brace although they say here the medical staff says he is sound that he is sound don't man the legend rapper to hit his called the right inside of intended to receive that was sniff again he was well covered like double covered out in the flat well next Saturday live at 3:30 Eastern Time here's your lineup regional action here on ABC most of you will see the Tigers of Clemson and Virginia some will see Missouri and Ohio State check through the cable operator though the games on pay-per-view BYU Washington Texas Kansas State next Saturday on ABC they're really starting to get after part net now I took another hit this time both eye hits me wasn't in danger that time the head was puts up with a 40 close to another low pack first down Mario Edwards on the final stop likes became the rack you know after a couple of grand agencies and my cocaine was all the ropes many Wolfpack fans wanted to change but the cocaine survived and coaches club with six wins last year higher hopes this year for Jeff for talent and I'm going to tell you something they're playing with a lot more confidence am I on a masterful job I think the Florida State came a big part of that last year my cocaine having taken the Wolfpack 2 2 ballgame 2 on the piece fall of 19 sit up an old fax get it back [Applause] heads up play with Santos went out the left large and they moved rapidly into that spot and put for him up in the tackle spot that time Raftery I think vistas block watch 77 he's pulling out of their kind of misses his block so he's left all by himself outside see him up there at the top of the screen and it's a good thing for him because that's where the ball game he was out there by himself good job hits up blood Peter's coming back from a knee injury final seconds of the third quarter ticking off and the Wolfpack of NC State trying to pull off the biggest upset so far in college football 16 to 7 although Seminoles of Florida State we'll be back with a great fourth quarter no doubt to this message and a word from our ABC station or home of the full championship series [Music] Salomon Smith Barney remembers what Bobby Bowden would really like to forget wide right the two words knowles fans would love to forget in 91 number one in the country Jerry Thomas misses to the right Miami with a 17 to 16 win then in 92 the Noles ranked number three in the country Dan Mari does the same wide right once again 1916 the final both defeats eliminated the Seminoles from national championship contention and remember at 93 Scott Bentley the recruit on the cover of Sports Illustrated can have those problems right now look Jim not with Sebastian Janikowski remember because Earwood has struggled and missed a couple of field goals there just a touchdown and then a field goal would win it so he could play a large role in these even though he hasn't really played a role at all as madmapper tuned and so forth well covered his story home [Music] you know now that is fun to watch you've got the all-american home loan against Florida State best cover guy take holding he's only a sophomore but he could be the next great cornerback at Florida State some say they were this guy reminds him of Deion Sanders but look at his coverage now he's got him in his hip pocket he's playing him inside out he's got it perfectly covered the only thing he doesn't do is look back for the ball where he might have been able to readjust to get a pick freshman all-american his first season as a starter for the Seminole nice play to drive for NC State they've kept it on the ground for much of this Drive Rashaad spikes can't go anywhere right at the line of scrimmage II set backward you know Terry as well as MC State has played today now Florida State not only has to battle NC State but also the clock see the clock now becomes a factor that's killing 14 and a half minutes to play the game may still be to scores as you know though they can score in the snap of a finger after 10 seconds from there on the board what NC State has been able to overcome is what ACC clubs battle so much the myth of Florida State playing the myth instead of the players on the and at this point at least my confidence and that's almost picked off how was it not Laurie Simon had it thrown right into his hand you're right they can score quickly on either side of the ball this is one way they could get back into it this is just a poor decision by Barnett again he waits too long it doesn't throw when he's balanced he's off balance and tried to throw passes frozen right to the linebacker how many ever saw Corey Simon only the third time that Florida State has trailed in an ACC game this lake near Wood gets it away quickly the Feaster thought about moving that ball portsmen get out of the way [Applause] 37-yard punt for ear would you look shaken up now it's up to the Knowles offense to get something going the last time Florida State scored fewer than seven points in a game 1988 against Miami they're stuck about seven now Warwick just popped by Lord Harrison there's an adrenaline flow now you're absolutely right that Florida State can score quickly but right now as we said Thompson factor and I think NC State now is believing it can win this game and here's a case in point watch how aggressive Harrison is he there's his read he's playing soft but now the break on the ball and he just goes headhunt and separates him from the ball wanky now 7 of 25 one touchdown before intercepts both packets shell-shocked after the first play of the game touchdown and Down Goes Winky the sack for the Wolfpack late Simon again [Applause] Simon the senior out of Hickory North Carolina has had a big game wanky said he had a problem with patience because he has more time than he has in practice because they don't face anybody that is as aggressive as their defense but I think he's holding it too long down and Clayton Simon just tenses up from behind when he tries to step in the pocket well Simon was a starter a year ago came in really wasn't in shape didn't prepare for the season lost his starting duties this is his final chance as a senior [Applause] wanky thrown over the middle got it right in front of Tony Scott let's throw nice jet Java commits to netball which will throw 22 yard pickup and that ball had velocity order just outside the 47 yard line catch by Dugan and again I thought Tony Scott was playing just a little bit soft and back in coverage they can't get tentative now they got to continue like Harrison did and go ahead honey [Applause] 8 out of 26 down those of the middle rugby is intended receiver another ball that Warrick looted pawn but not really well thrown by Winkie he said receivers open throughout the afternoon NC State taking chances on defense and he hasn't been able to connect [Music] carter-finley Stadium in Raleigh North Carolina in the fourth quarter 12 44 left in the game maybe the biggest upset of the year so far through a row fact on top of cornice with a solid run by D Feaster down to the 43 yard line D refers them the Wolfpack with a 16 to 7 lead over the Seminoles open up the game Peter Warrick on a 74-yard touchdown catch from Chris Weinke but that's been all incident they've been seven well I met guy right there wanky has struggled today just eight of 27 he has won touchdown but he's thrown four interceptions he really hasn't found his rhythm he's been out of sync little this Drive he's starting to look a little bit sharper the Seminoles 47 in 1 since joining the ACC back in 1992 when asked them on a comeback today the there's your first down straight up the middle goes deep feasto has come on and played a lot for Travis minor today that was the plan by Bobby Bowden to rest minor NC State could be sitting in a lot better shape right now and they got good kicking game Earwood missed two field goals in an extra pointer they'd have a bigger lead and if you look at this NC State has outscored the Seminoles 51 to 28 when you go back to last year and count the last seven quarters it stands because of those mrs. Florida states still within a touchdown and a field goal of winning this game last year the Wolfpack male to come back in Tallahassee but they were down too far 27 to nothing ended up losing 48 to 35 and then whistle it did winky and they come over to find out what Ronald cherry the referee has to say at the conclusion of today's game we will select the Chevrolet most valuable player of the game from each team in recognition of these athletes Chevrolet will make a contribution to each school's general scholarship fund a lot of time left in this one to almost 12 minutes [Music] wait Florida State started this game scored on the very first play on a 74-yard touchdown and you thought at that point as you said it they were going to be sharp today but ever since then they haven't been able to do anything and it hasn't been as if Winkie hasn't had a receivers open or they haven't been able to get something going against the defense Mike he just hasn't been sharp it was solid in a Texas A&M game but not today almost 400 total yards yeah Betsy wood what NC State is doing is keeping everybody in front of them but not giving them after that first 74 yarder they've kept the receivers in front of them and have not given up the big play and for NC State Jamie Barnett 15 of 30 and he's had a big day conference continues down on the field as we try to figure it out game clock is being adjusted by 18 seconds we're taking 18 seconds off of the game pause all right Ronald cherry says we'll take some time off the clock let's down to 1134 I guess my cocaine which would be his no doubt biggest win of his career at NC State came in follow dick Sheridan who was here for seven years went to six bowl games the last thing Bobby Bowden wants to hear is that they're taking time off the clock got 1134 to play he still needs to touch down in a field goal Plus wanky stand around all this time just when he seemed to be getting his rhythm back Travis minor goes this way late ahead finally brought down up at the 27 Jimmy 34 yard line he has been a workhorse though in the first game we mentioned 34 carries that's a Florida State record against Texas A&M and the split time with defeats are gotten a little more of a break today but they've gone more to him in the second half because Winky has not been able to connect in the air 18 carries 104 yards now for Travis minor as bestir looks on [Music] well over by the Wolfpack you know I think everybody stole Florida State played Texas A&M and I was talking to Mike hang wood and the Texas A&M defensive coordinator and he says what makes the Noles offense so difficult for defense is that they can line up in an i formation and in throwing so effectively or they can line up in a passing formation and run it but they aren't foolin NC State and Winkies thrown into double coverage both safeties converged on this play they only had two wide outs two receivers and so folks safeties could come over that was an easy play for those safeties Weinke had three days to throw it he had no one opened there's the drive so far [Music] with interception of McKinney's Anthony case in the redshirt freshman out of Indian River Virginia with this one [Applause] and the wolf neck not only believing they can win this one now they believe they are going to win it 10:39 still up though to Monday's a lot to go this one and it's high tip drill bingo interception to start to believe [Music] Marcus Nelson on the sideline the relief pitcher of the bullpen warming up he did so earlier in the second half but now more intently is Winky on the sidelines after his fifth interception of the afternoon keep in mind outs he's got a lot of repetitions in the springtime because Kendra was out and altitude was actually battling for the number one spot with Winky he's starting to get serious in Raleigh North Carolina with Gen 39 left envelope your screen hope the nice catch up there was tip he may have saved an interception two things time is definitely a factor Florida State can't panic as you can see there they aren't but they have gotten towards rest of the game with it a jailbreak they're brought everybody to put the pressure on one end the second thing is NC State cannot get too excited here too emotional because the motion gets in the way of concentration and you can sometimes make mistakes that they haven't made to this point one mistake Barnett made earlier he truly interception and he tried to make something happen that wasn't there exactly what you're talking about [Applause] [Music] 37 yard line diving for the first down Barnett the only time that Florida State has lost in the ACC you go back the 95 33 to 28 to score at Virginia Warrick Dunn can't get to the end zone so Bobby Bowden within a foot of an unblemished record in ACC play since joining in 1992 as Dunn was stopped at the goal line in danger of another one but there's still 47 in one and 62 the conference 11 consecutive 10-win seasons 11 straight top 4 rankings they don't lose alban and they definitely don't panic in this situation if you're my cocaine you're hoping your ballclub believes at this point even though you haven't been in a situation like this against Florida State but leave that you are gonna win the game arrogant with the situation where Barnett with the bad wheel he had his knee operated on they say it's still not 100% they don't expect him to run he comes out and picks up the key first down by the way we've got more clock problems and to take time off the clock on the last Drive and then they have to do the same twice now the clock has not started when play started which and you would never think that was definitely not happening at home when an upset is brewing yeah now this one a long way from over but more actions tonight at 8 o'clock in primetime here on ABC the Irish trying to build on the upset of Michigan go to East Lansing to take on Michigan State they're trying to right this ship be a huge upset for them over the Irish tonight good one though rivalry obviously that's 9 at 8:00 o'clock here on ABC and now they'll continue to talk about the clock problems Florida State still has three timeouts left NC state s3 but it's too early to be talking about that yet right now the defense and Bobby bowels were thinking about turnover forcing the turnover well no matter what happens here in the last 10 18 obviously a lot is riding on this when you look at national championship hopes the future at least for this season of Florida State offensively the Noah's coaches can't feel good about what they've seen today based on what they saw in a Texas A&M game and they felt very good after that and regardless of the outcome of this this game is certainly going to hurt Florida State in the poll the only good thing about that it's still early in the season where's the Bowl Championship Series this year number one versus number two guaranteed and the Noles hoping to be in one of those two spots the defensive coordinator last two times he's come with blitzes first out finally got the clockwork down Jamie Barnett back to the line of scrimmage Spike's gets to call back to the wine that's about it tough to run against these Knowles Corey Simon the junior we're going to start today he was in on the stop first big stop on first down that's when NC State has had a lot of success of first downs which is allowed their game plan to go in full swing then they can pass the run but here now brings up second down and 11 say they've got a now start thinking at second and long and start thinking about looking for Torrey hold again on terms of the run the way teams have always tried to attack Florida State run right up the middle right at them because their quickness east and west now they've got the great tackles up the middle Cory hope to the end zone [Applause] 63 yards there are no flags on the plane and you better believe is both back crowd expects the upset now [Applause] have been gimme at five cuts downs against Florida State [Music] [Applause] in a couple of touchdowns again this afternoon that time he was just a fly pattern in the Outlander secondary [Applause] when a perfect pass by Barnett as we'll just put a lot of air under the ball that whole run pool 63 yards he had a 68 yard punt return for a touchdown earlier today [Applause] five touchdowns against the Noles a year ago but these much more important for Torry Holt in the Wolfpack 22 to 7 with the extra point to come 47 in one may go to 47 and two if the Wolfpack can hold on 931 left Torry Holt the 63-yard touchdown catch when my cocaine knows this one's a long way from over as does Bobby vows the extra point they'll go for too near was missed an extra point we're up 15 right now and walk 17 open ocean to the far side [Applause] 24-7 wolfpack was like a magnet pulled everybody to the right then they just move back to the left there was nobody there they roll to the right everybody's looking for hope whoops we forgot the tight-end punch down stiff now on second and 11 we said they've got to look for glory hole so we do it the defense do it but nobody could stop it that's just a fly pattern he splits the seam between the two defenders and this takes it is oh how sweet was that Gibson couldn't get there Jackson couldn't get there Holt just out runs them and the ball was perfectly thrown because Barnett put a lot of air hundreds through it hi and let hold on [Applause] [Music] thorry hope with a 5 touchdown catches last year set an ACC record this year he's trying to pull off the biggest upset his career Jamie Barnett the perfect man hold all afternoon ball my cocaine trying to make sure it's Jukes realized there are nine men Reggie Durden Z sister back deep the quick try [Applause] [Music] she's quickly out of the 34 good run back though good feel to carry ABC sports presentation of college football Broxton by Chevrolet trucks the most dependable longest lasting trucks on the road Coors Light cross roots attempt the clean taste of the Rockies and Morgan Stanley Dean Witter we measure success one investor at a time we've got a new quarterback and more sell out Marcus out rather sophomore out of Fort Walton Beach Florida out Singh which is high school to the championship hand throw back the piece to the catch out of the backfield across midfield to the 49 of NC State great gain on first down for the Noles Edwin Smith the freshman middle linebacker made the stop outside of Florida you may not know Marcus absent he certainly didn't know coming in that he was going to get any playing time today the scouting report says he's an exceptional athlete very fine runner who voted love his ability to handle pressure and he certainly has that now got a lot of time in the spring as you mentioned after Kendra went down but did not throw a pass a year ago first year playing for Florida State also gonna pick this point up scramble and Newland first down this snap was low out of the shotgun I think I reported I think right there he lived up to everything that scattered report it was a bad snap he didn't panic kept his composure and it said he's a fun runner and he tucks it away and he's within the yard of the first the same high school is eg green and Danny Wuerffel or Long Beach There's Winkie you wonder what is going through his mind in the backfield a short gain on the cats but that's enough for the first down Terry with 8 8 17 left I mean there's no question that wanky after all the build-up and all his expectations that he is right now heartbroken he's got to be 61 but I mean 4 ounces this is a great opportunity and right now there's got to be a sense of urgency for Florida State but they still can't panic and Florida State's not a team that normally does three scores to get there though some change completes a Peter Warrick a gain of about 80 to the 30-yard line and NC State's letting anything happen underneath now but try not to give up anything what's becoming all true all too true for the Seminoles now at the fact that they need three scores [Music] bouncing calling to play with the no-huddle [Applause] [Music] the miner couldn't get a tool wrapped up the INA line of scrimmage Cecil mccurdy the defensive tackle he was not supposed to play today because of a sprain you know what screw this play up with the fact that NC State was coming on the flip I showed it early when they were guessing it almost jumped in and all of a sudden that threw everything out of whack with the offense in the snapper and also for the ball carrier minor and so Alton had to just tuck it away [Applause] - here comes the crowd playing a role Johnson not going to get there back to the original line of scrimmage at the 30 maybe the 31 so it brings up and almost three play you need to touch down to the field goal but at this point I think Florida State Portland anything needs two touchdowns and I think they'll go for it here even though its fourth and long Bobby wants to think about it and talk about it you're going to burn a timeout I'd go for fourth and almost three for the Noles try to avoid their first defeat of the year only second ever in the ACC when we come back they'll pull championship series is online with live action interviews game highlights and live polls on the web at espn.com fourth down and two and the 30-yard line we don't see Sebastian Janikowski don't sneak Chris blankies on the sideline Markinson bouncing in a quarterback but the Noles are gonna go for him [Applause] outs in the throw drones but the Wolfpack hold either way they hold on fourth down and it will turn it over to NC State as good a win as these fans will have seen if the Wolfpack can hold on in a long long time still a little premature for that thought Jeff just under seven minutes to play but I think he tried to feather this too much they showed a running formation with two tights almost had his knee taken out by his own blocker but Peter Warrick was open but he tried to feather and rather than just step up and drill it and it was almost picked off again by Perry so I'll sit not having much success even though we drove the seminoles down the field but he and wanky not able to put much on the board at all only seven points that was in the first play of the game when Sean spikes right into the middle of the pile as the clock continues to run Florida State has two timeouts left you don't want to use those here but you want to help guys up off the floor and get him back into the huddle as soon as possible look at this tells the story doesn't it 68 ouch fitori Holt had a 63-yard touchdown catch a minute ago said right at the beginning of the game the motto at NC State this year big plays big days and they paddle 315 yards for a Holt in the last two games against Florida State and they have dominated Florida State in the last seven quarter like no room at all nice play on the outside neon Humphrey who's had a bad neck actually a neck burner that he got in practice but he got the spikes in time to trip him up [Music] Mickey Andrews the defensive coordinator they've been perplexed today Tori Hollis is for the second year in a row is just Pearson that's secondary even though you know they were really after hold today and trying to stop him and as you look at the clock continue to tick this is huge for the Florida State defense to have a shot they've got to stop him here to get the ball back throw it in a long time keep it on the ground bikes I want to take any chances so they'll have to punt it away after a gain of about two like that decision yes I do and I think it's a great stop by Florida State and now Florida State's got to get the ball back in pretty good field position but I mean pretty important my cocaine he knows three scores beat him he doesn't want to give him back the ball too quickly or give him anything easy with a turnover so he's keeping it on the ground just tried to use the clock D Feaster back I wanted to look at the numbers on Jamie Barnett on the sideline the Noles may be coming after this one though Scott Eyre what stands at his own 16 yard line here they come he gets it away a line drive kick and not a real good one his only intention was to get it out of there 30 yards on the punt the ward estate takes over at the 38 Michael came trying to hold on to a huge win [Music] 450 left Florida State eating three scores they come back with Chris winking his numbers on the day he doesn't want to look at those five interceptions thank you four of his last 22 with four picks during that time watched out of the pocket down he goes at the 35 yard line and Alicia I agree a late flag there to call face man streets is the man who got there I'm not sure that flack came so late I'm not sure there was a face mask but that's what they're calling I believe [Music] there was a head high on his hat the face face is five your face face on the defense take a look now the hand is high on his hat but see if it gets his face man it's actually on his shoulder pad you know what you're right though face mask and the flag was thrown from up here the official had us back to the play or had the players backs to his never touched the mask first down in five in any case no need to argue about it at this point to run and he throws it behind menace he had no one in front of him whatsoever all the pressure that NC State put on Weinke earlier in the ball game is now coming into play right there there were no red jerseys around him but he turned quickly and through before he was sent that pressure is filling his mind the five turnovers in today and two mumbles in the AMD [Music] liner out of the backfield out to the 49 yard line close to a first down he may have it for the nose but for 21 now and that clock becoming even more of an enemy than NC State and don't forget if time permits stay tuned for the thrifty Car Rental postgame report Webb scores and highlights from across the country with John Saunders and Todd Blackledge did not get the first down oh it's filled in one the inside gift he's gonna get it this time to the 49 the ball is loose NC State saying they recovered it but it stays with Florida State and they will move the chains you take up all this time you know getting that first down and more off the clock Florida State today has had his most success in the passing game when Warrick is the number two receiver in that's when he's the most dangerous and right now that's where he's lining up on this play ring receiver set for the nose out of the shotgun plenty of time going heat on the far sideline [Applause] Anthony Jason again picked it off after it was tipped Wow sixth interception for NC State they had eight all of last year and a terrible decision by wanky he showed his impatience and his inexperience for for the home run when his star player Warrick who's right here inside number nine was wide open now stopping right there there's nobody within 10 yards of your own American in Heisman Trophy Canada but instead he goes deep for the whole run and it's picked off with a tip drill boy to Harrison the man who got a piece of it in an Anthony Kayson with his second interception of the day and Winkie on the sidelines Maine be able to make up for that at this point it's getting late in Raleigh 347 remaining bhishan spikes likes the head up to the line of scrimmage that's it even those in the stands and even those on the sidelines wearing red jerseys that had doubts are now starting to believe my cocaine may flip leaked higher I think he's wounded I didn't get hurt on the jump and keep jumped initially we've got ice on the back of his cab pulled a camp up got a play hurt even on the sidelines this would be the biggest win of his career by far and one of the biggest in NC state history maybe the number two team the country ever in the ACC Ray Robinson wrapped up after a gain of about 1 and the clock continues to run they've got to stop it now they just did three minutes there's your timeout so we'll have one left a terrible day for bobby bowden he came in he wasn't feeling well has a cold and now all this is taking place well as much as Tory holders under the defense it's been the struggles of the offense that has really hurt bobby bowden today Chris Weinke just not on from the get-go the first pass of the game if you missed it a 74-yard touchdown strike the Peter Warrick again but uh-oh blowout ton well and as happy as you feel for Michael Caine we told you the problems he's had but how he stuck to it did it his way to rebuilt this program he also have to feel sorry for Chris blankie-wankie being the guy that was the glamorous story terrific story the way he came back to college football 26 years of age squared away and now to have a day like this the glamour turns to nightmare no NC State has had some great wins in its football history and had some great years with Lou Holtz's here they went five years in row when they were really a power of beat Penn State several times but this has to be in my mind the biggest one they've ever had number two team in the nation they will have beat and you go back to the days of Lou Holtz in those great years and on drew and the days of Roman games with the great players who have playing there Jim richer now the bills picture it not only that but he couldn't ask for better people to do it you think Alice Robinson and what he went through with the basketball program the athletic director has this great vision you think of Michael Caine and everything he went through some people here wanted to run him out of town he stuck he did it his way built the program plenty of people almost yeah majority of people and yet he did it he never lost his confidence he continued to do it his way and he's rebuilt this program three wins to end last year and now two consecutive wins including one perhaps over Bobby bound through 44 left the awfully tough to imagine a Florida State comeback at this point shows you the team that had the longest winning streak in Atlantic Coast Conference the NC State they've just extended torrei hope and at the upper hand today on Peter Warrick not Warwick's fault though you can't blame him his quarterback just had an off day there's a guy that didn't even play football when he went to high school his high school coach talking men to be in the team manager just because he wanted them associated with the program didn't take long to find out his intention he wanted to graduate from being a manager to playing as his wide receiver playing as his quarterback playing his running back used of everywhere now everybody in the world sees this talent he's a great all-america and they're not going to wait for the troopers to open up the gates they're coming down you you don't think they're going to storm the field after this one do you it's your school partner you know what kind of spirit they have you were involved in one of those national titles that was in short pants and a tank top though I didn't mess around in pads and helmets fourth down air one on to punt this time and involves debt at the 40-yard line there's Marcus Townsend gonna come back on in relief of Chris Rincon the Bobby Bowden you mentioned in a moment ago you do have to feel for him and here's here's a team that comes in I mean dominated the ACC they play Texas A&M they don't shy away from anyone last year they played USC in that first game that play another tough one to open up the season and get a good tested win and they come in today and I think are just shell-shocked for what NC State's been able to do and you look ahead to the national championship picture those just take them out of that mr. Jensen 243 too early in the season to answer that correctly I don't think so at this point but they've got a lot of work to do to get back to that level I mean this is a situation where this club is as you said never lost in the ACC except to Virginia forty seven and one we asked him if the ACC was closing the gap in talent and they said well other than how to answer that till we get through with NC State will they learn about the rest of the bill though the national championship in 93 his out son takes it outside run out of bounds he's got an old first down at the 34 yard line Florida State has no timeouts left so they've got to use the sidelines as much they can with just 209 left but what was improbable now and almost impossible for them to score three times but when you talk about the national championship picture Tim can you win it with one loss well of course we know that and in fact Florida State even winning at 93 never had an undefeated season minor what they have a serum they've had 11 consecutive 10-win seasons and 11 straight top 4 rankings right so the point being that one loss obviously is not going to taken completely out of the national championship second long road to get it back to where he wants it to bomb about as am i cocaine the win over Ohio imagine this a week ago hurricane arrow comes through Thursday night game this one almost picked off again with NC State has to block a punt against Ohio and run it in for a touchdown with less than two minutes left in the game to win and it was a situation where they were almost dead the crowd thought they were done talked about les Robinson he thought they were done Micah like any team thought they may have been done and they win a game like that and now they're going to upset the Seminoles of Florida State down to the 32 yard line right at all for now that'll bring up fourth down and long for Florida State NC State if they stop and get it back you can run out the last minute the half 1:30 in counting has changed routes in the florist [Music] tip incomplete and that should do it [Applause] we'll pack up twenty four to seven they're getting ready to storm the field 20 left but you're looking at a sideline that grew in belief as the day went on [Applause] Rowley I can tell you this figure they can beat Florida State today in Zim if you're a Florida State fan it's hard to explain it's hard to figure this one out what a great scene this is ready set go and they'll be out there [Applause] no time outs for the Seminole and the clock continues to run the Chevrolet most valuable players of the game Florida State and Tory hope of NC State the whole nine catches 135 yards but he brought back a punt 68 yards at that 63-yard touchdown catch a warrant for caches thirty yards in the open Chevrolet donation will be made scholarship but more than a quarter of a century talked about both of those players in the open of this game work and holds that they were the show I didn't let anybody down there are more people in this stadium now than the world when the game began as the game went on in NC state continued to leave people came into this stadium as the afternoon to dress Chris Weinke trying to figure out what went wrong today there's a wolf pack Club enjoying what may be the biggest win in the program's history and it had some great ones and some great players but they just upset the number-2 team in the nation Bobby Bowden and as Bobby comes over to have a word and congratulate my cocaine and I'm not sure they could get these folks off the field that they wanted to state troopers are trying to help my cocaine he's got that bad leg he said hey leave it alone just let me walk slowly here think he wants to savor the multitude number two ranks Houston back in 1967 [Music] Morenci state suite of winners they're ever going to have here in Raleigh near Warwick you get a feel for that guy I've been hopeful coming in injured coaches said well maybe you shouldn't play today he wanted to play all along told us he would definitely be in the lineup not able to have the day you wanted to have yes yes hey Mike Tim Brant congratulations thank comical performance by your players thank you might steal I tell you it was on you know it's beyond words right thanks to seven points you know that's an unbelievable job our defense and our offense did just what they needed to Mike congratulations thanks so much thank you very much Mike congratulations thank you talked about the seven pound that's as long as Florida State has been since nineteen [Music] and it happened on the first play from scrimmage 74 yards for that man Peter Warrick from Chris Weinke but that was it the defense of NC State which had given a 361 yards on the ground - watching first time [Applause] their first game just shut down this offense for Florida State the dead sticky Jerry has started out with a 74-yard touchdown we look at each other and said here we go and I think everybody felt that way but then NC State to see to strap it on and they dominated the rest of the way now not only Barnett to hope of the defense six interceptions for the Wolfpack hence he stayed at two and OH Florida State won and won the Wolfpack as big a win as they've had perhaps in the history of their program is upset number two where Tim Brant I'm Terry Gannon hope you enjoyed watching Torry Holt go deep against the Noles remember Michigan State Notre Dame tonight go ahead and celebrate it's time for CNN sports tonight feeling upset you're not alone Bobby Bowden knows your painting and some beatings doled out today and one surprise bitty as the Nittany Lions fans all welcome to the show I'm like Alana and I make a Hammond a miracle finish for Sammy Sosa and the Cubs we'll get to that story in just a minute and two Heisman hopefuls go head-to-head but we begin it with the kind of unpredictability of college football already a huge shocker in college football and you look at this season Bobby Bowden the college football world in a word stunned she's supposed to be a formality Florida State 25 point favorites going to North Carolina State NC State coach Michael Kane said we didn't have a dog's chance to win the Wolfpack barking loud now there they are pumped up and ready to go at home the guy that killed the Seminoles last year Tori Holy had five TD catches a year ago watch him get crushed on this punt return but he just bounces off and then takes off what a run by Tori hold 68 yards for the score North Carolina stayed up at this point 13 7 Chris Weinke brutal whose first pass for a touchdown to Peter Warrick but then pick there in the end zone in the second quarter in all six interceptions for Chris Weinke Florida State did lay a few hits on some people Chris hopes up top there but in the end it's Torry Holt one more time look at those Carolina State that up 16 7 9 40 to go looking to ice the game great call play fake catch the blitzing Florida State defense and look at Torrey home 63 yards for the touchdown time to celebrate in Raleigh as they pull off the shocker 24 to 7 it's just Florida State's second loss in the ACC they're now 47 and 2 all time Chris Weinke 8 for 29 and a school record sixth interception the last time the Seminoles were held to seven points I was back in 1988 bet at NC State with one of the biggest wind nobody gave us a dog's chance of coming in here today and having a chance to win this football game I mean not a prayer a matter of fact it's gonna be a 26-point game on 30-point game or whatever the heck it was so it's gratifying I'm happy for NC State we've got a great University here that nobody's heard about I believe we heard they heard about NC State today I thought we'd win the ballgame we're pretty confident we would win the ballgame but we lost it and you've got to give North Carolina State case they sit there and beat us Anandi Ann Arbor Mich Excel abrasion and definitely the biggest NC State athletic win since the cardiac pact won the NCAA basketball championship 15 years ago Florida State had outscored the Wolfpack 119 to 27 in three previous trips to Raleigh none of the pundits that predict football games even foresaw a competitive game well NC State spotted Florida State and early touchdown and then abruptly put the brakes on one of America's top scoring machines the Wolfpack attacked on both sides of the ball reducing Florida state's all-time ACC record 247 and - Tom Crichton has more how do you pull off the biggest upset in the recent college football memory o NC State knocks off 2nd ranked Florida State by dominating three key aspects first and foremost Torry Holt on a mission all day long hope that turns an 88-yard punt for a spectacular touchdown giving state their first lead of the game who adds nine receptions for 135 yards including this 63-yard touchdown sealing the 24 - 7 upset win I think this could be the greatest one you know NC State and a lot more to come we're gonna do like I said we're gonna enjoy this win to the fullest and get ready for next week the pack dominates on defense not in total yards put turnovers the state secondary has a field day picking off Chris Lincoln six times we just wanted to come out and just every opportunity we wanted to take advantage of it I mean you know playing this type of caliber team you know that you can't let you can't let an opportunity slash lab on but the key aspect for NC State is emotion the pack plays to win while never listening to the naysayers [Applause] we've been beleaguered and battled and you know nobody gave us a dogs chance of coming in here today and having a chance to win this football game I mean not a prayer now everyone believes in lolly Tom pregnant TV five sports on any other college football North Carolina State got two touchdowns from Tori Holtz a stunt number to Florida State twenty four to seven Chris Weinke threw six interceptions different coaches in America hook up in Raleigh but somebody got thrown to the wolves oh yeah Florida State vs NC State you know just like any other ACC game involving the Noles right FSU plays pin the tail on the donkey in the locker room to determine their point total for the game and then goes out and rolls up 50 60 a hundred points on the opposition 98 percent of the time yeah but when the planets are aligned just right and maybe some groundhog sees a shadow or something anything's possible and the Wolfpack believed a change was due and that hail coming out strong 25 point underdog don't tell that to Torry Holt Seminoles forgot how to tackle some good licks but he keeps on tickin 68 yards the first punt return touchdown given up by Florida State ten years and they love it in Raleigh 13:07 meanwhile Chris Weinke the Florida State quarterback six interceptions ties an ACC record he was just eight of 29 passing before being pinched in the fourth quarter there's a good play for the old fans Chris hope rusty Russell hoping he can find his noggin fun after that more from Torrey home facing double coverage doesn't matter Holt's huge afternoon 63-yard touchdown reception and hang on to your hats twenty four to seven the Wolfpack scoring its biggest win in more than three decades handing FSU just its second conference loss at 49 eighths of Raleigh after NC State upset second ranked Florida State traffic backed up on Hillsborough Street as fans took over the sidewalks Wolfpack fans tore down both goalposts and carried them out of carter-finley Stadium they made it all the way to the belt line about a mile from the gridiron police stopped a group of 50 or so people carrying the massive metal posts were a traffic hazard and ordered the students to put the goalpost down the sentencing phase think he locks in on his receiver and that's a pic Lloyd Harrison takes it away at the goal line setting up a touchdown drive fourth quarter still 16 7 NC State the pass tipped and taken away Anthony case in their six interceptions by Winky Torry Holt having a great day for the Wolfpack Jamie Barnett going long 63 yards and a touchdown and they tear down the goalposts the Wolfpack twins 24/7 Florida State now 47 and 2 in ACC games all-time Florida State never had a perfect season in Bobby Bowden's 23 years Arizona State has started its season oh and to NC State Wolfpack football team beat the number two ranked Florida State Seminoles this weekend Wolfpack coach my cocaine is calling this the biggest win of his six-year career the pack tripped up FSU the final score 24 to 7 and fans couldn't be prouder oh it's insane I couldn't believe it it was phenomenal great Florida State is finished in the nation's top four every season for the last 11 years perhaps not this one 50 [Music] NC State Wolfpack 98 with head coach Michael Caine and hos Don che NC State Wolfpack football waves brought to you by Gatorade is it Nu BB&T you can tell we want your business river landing private Riverside living and world-class golf call 1-800 to 85 for 171 and by three-sixty communication cellular paging and long-distance right down the street and a low again everybody welcome to Wolfpack football 98 here's what's on the program today NC State knocks off number two Florida State we've got great game highlights we also have a special play from the game we call it let's see that again and a sumptuous game played dish is called high and tight shrimp and rice and this week's success story brings a former player back to coach at NC State and coach okhane will talk about the wolf pack's first-world opponent the Baylor Bears but first let's go to the locker room for postgame comments with coach Mike but but to go out there today and hold that offensive football team to seven points that's miraculous that is miraculous and I want a compliment two of our coaches Kent Briggs and Jeff Snipes our Cody can see coordinators two years ago probably a lot of folks in here we're telling me I needed to fire those two guys I needed to get rid of because they couldn't coach I think the day they proved to you to think you know we're not a lot of different much different football team than we were Thursday night a week ago but it sure it's a heck of a lot different feeling and you know I couldn't be more proud of a group of players and coaches in my life and there's one of the greatest wins and Wolfpack football history as NC State a twenty four point underdog holds Florida State scoreless for 73 plays and the lowest amount of points scored in 10 years as they post a solid 24 to 7 win before 51,000 rockin fans in carter-finley Stadium coach I don't know where to begin but let's start with the well you know we had a very similar game planets we had last year on the opposite side we had the motion people do some things to get toy hole free we did a great job Jimmy cosmic dick 40 Robby Caldwell Brett Simmons Charley Fisher had our guys ready to play and they went out and executed it very very well but that my hats off to the defensive guys to hold that team for seven points was a tremendous accomplishment in Jeff's nights Kent Briggs Joe paid Kenny Phillips and then the defensive team itself did a tremendous job and that was that was the key we we did a good job of confusing their quarterback forced him to throw a couple of interceptions on the six of them and we were able to get pressure on the quarterback from a different number of ways and we we kind of we held a running game in check we never gave up the well other than the first play we didn't give up any other big plays did you squeeze the defense down a little bit Mike in terms of giving them less looks you tell me that our DPS no we gave him a good number of looks we wanted to we had to confuse them we had to confuse them in the secondary we you had to get Winky out of a rhythm if you let him stand back in the pocket and get in a rhythm he can beat you very he could beat you very quickly with the talent that they have surrounding him so we had to get him out of a rhythm and were able to get pressure only Bobby cotton and Greg Derry got tremendous pressure on him out of a front flow for rush even we didn't bring pressure to the step that you have to be proud of and actually back to back coach this week once again in a very key numbers one turnover and only two penalties and the six picks well that's exactly right we forced six turnovers only turned the ball over one time and only it were penalized I think ten yards in the town in the entire ballgame that is a key we have to execute that way we're not talented enough to overcome our own mistakes we can't beat ourselves we if somebody's gonna beat us they have to beat us and fortunately in the first two ballgames we haven't beaten ourselves another stellar performance by Torrey hope he enjoys playing against those Seminoles that's seven touchdowns in the last two times these two teams have played well towards is also proud of the way he handled coming into this ball game a lot of talk about what he did last year and what you know and it may have been a fluke but the tour went out today improved that he's one of the premier receivers in this country and made so many things happen for us on the offensive side but also in the kicking game with that great punt return yet coach the many coaches subscribe to the theory that from game one the game to there is some sometimes a significant improvement how did you see it in terms of the defensive gap well I think on both sides of the ball we made tremendous improvement it was very difficult in that ball game against Ohio to tell how good we were because of the well conditions I believe that we had his final practices last week preparing for Florida State as I've ever been around and we were sharp we were crisp great concentration and I just had a feeling all week long that we just had to do it on Saturday we've done it Monday through Friday we just had to get it done on Saturday and and these guys went out and did a tremendous job and and executed not perfectly but but a great game plan alright thanks very much coach now let's go to the turf it carter-finley stadium it is a sunny 87 degrees and Florida State strikes early we don't start off there well they come out and first play the game they throw a deep one to Warwick gets Tony Scott there to bite a little out move and he breaks back inside for a big plane we felt like they were gonna come in and try to throw the ball deep against facility which they did and other than that we did a great job against them then off gates of this is very important we come right back with a big play here 28 yards the shot spikes on the draw even though we don't get points out of this series here it gives us some confidence we're able to move the football against a very very tough defense soil and the 59 yards they own off a little screen and they come right back take the ball back down the field and we come up with one of six interceptions we take the ball from the one-yard line here and drive it 99 yards for a touchdown it's a big third and seven play here Tori on a little I'm going to lay right back across the middle takes up 15 again we just did a good job right through here executing offensively JMU hitting some big plays and a great catch by Chris Coleman Chris has really stepped up and you didn't have a lot of catches today but he had three very big ones and this being one of those for a 33-yard game would come back again toy on an 11 yard completion on I think it's starting forward here we're executing offense early and converting third down which is critical to play Florida State they put you in third downs you got to execute here third down and seven or eight we get Eric leak on a little corner route for six points on big momentum swing right there we're down by seven and all of a sudden we're back I at seven to six we missed extra point stop them on a big third down play they put the toy tremendous effort here by cut return team tremendous individual effort by tor here's he slips to Stoppers and takes the ball for the touchdown why the red comes up with a big play again you know we didn't move the ball obviously but defensively we're doing tremendous job taking the ball away from them and then I can see we're able to leave the ball just keep them off the field just enough to get our defense arrest Scotty Wood comes in puts the ball down to the fool and then we come back with another big play here I think this is a third down in three where we get pressure on him and calls him the throw bad pass and then here on na and we get the interception with Jason periods they've taken the ball back down the field again in the end zone again stopping one of their scoring drives more opportune to school with a big play defense I mean that was the name of this game coming up with big plays defensively as well as offensive it's hard to move the ball four and five yards against Florida State you got to get some big jugs and were able to do that Victoria nice player Devon Smith picks up about thirty two or three yards there on a little out route unable to get ports out of that series in at the end of the half we come up with a big sack there to eliminate any scoring possible [Music] so the Wolf Pack is up by 6 after 30 minutes now we go back to Carl affinity stadium and coach this is a nice way for the Wolfpack to start the third quarter putting points on the board the second half we've really very fortunate here we should not bring this ball out of the end zone and the Ray Rob's and you can see what kind of talent young man potentially has right there making guys missed at the 5 and brings it out to the 32 yard line that sets our offense up in good field position Jamie a nice play here to Chris Coleman on the second down and 14 play efficient Jamie did a great job there with people in his face to own a completion of tour here would come in and kick a very very important field goal that puts us up 16 to 7 that that's big point right there and it puts them in a two scoreless situation again the thing you can see is their defense flying around we're getting a lot of people to the football and in the Lord Harrison comes up with another big interception a great return here puts offense again in good field position we're unable to get the ball into the end zone great catch by toy hold one-handed looking back into the Sun I just just outstanding play on his part we missed the field goal there which was very discouraging we've got to do a better job they're critical right there you can see a good pass rush we flip make the quarterback flush out of pocket and we get the sack all really the second half we did a great job of putting pressure on the quarterback here big play third down and 11 we run the quarterback draw and Jamie picks up the first down to get it again to get us out of the shot of our own goalpost a nice catch by Devon Smith again we don't score points but we're able to punt the ball away down the field and get the ball down on the end of the field make them play from there you again good pass rush makes him pull the ball down and again you know they're not we're not allowing him to play in a rhythm good job there on the tip Anthony casing rich or gets the intersection again stops them we come back on a first down excuse me a third and long play third 19 I believe it was Jamie does a great job of pulling ball down knowing where the sticks are getting the first end we come back on a big big pass play here to toy for the touchdown to put us up 22 to 7 big big play in the game I know I'll keep using that term big play but there were so many of them and then we'd do a great job here on the two-point conversion Jamie again just you know taking the liquid getting the ball off completion to Devon Smith to go up 24 to 7 in our defense rises to the occasion again pressure on the quarterback makes him pull it down forces him to run the football and again he gets a little happy feet there because of some pressure and we force a bad throw interception high six of the day in the ball game [Music] well obviously just a super victory for the Wolfpack and only the second loss for Florida State since they joined the ACC since 1992 coach knowledge the opportunity to select our BellSouth Yellow Pages Player of the Week well it's a tremendously difficult decision to make this week to try to pull a player or two out of this game and give them the Player of the Week but I do players kind of stick out in my mind at this point in time when his Torrijos obviously he did a tremendous job nine catches 135 yards two touchdowns an unbelievable point return he makes a couple of great catches but also another young man that it did a tremendous job was Jamie Barnett Jamie is playing with a you know a knee brace he kept picking himself up time after time after time the way those guys hit him he was 17 and 32 for two touchdowns just did a tremendous job of leading and running off into football team all right two good choices coach Jamie Barnett certainly had a great game from this quarterback position and certainly a nice receiving game by Tori hole now it's time to move on to let's see that again sponsored by our friends an optometric eye care center the official eye care provider for the Wolfpack late in the first quarter this punt to tori Holt number 81 picks it off cuts down the right hand side in front of the FSU bench cuts back to midfield and takes it all the way for 68 yards and that is the first punt run back against Florida State in ten years that's pretty work right there and the packed stretches its lead to 13 to 7
