NC State football superlatives through first 9 games at open date

After losing four of its previous five, NC State knocked off then-No. 8 Georgia Tech to go into its final open date of the season. Although the Wolfpack needs one more win to achieve bowl eligibility, the team appears to have a new spark with three games remaining on the schedule. “I feel like that’s what we needed,” senior tight end Cody Hardy said. “The past couple games before Georgia Tech were a little rough, but coming off that win, I feel like everybody’s juiced up and ready to go. Going up against another top team next week, that’s what we needed.” Here are TheWolfpacker.com’s superlatives through the first nine weeks.
