This was like watching a mirror universe version of the ECU game. Foster changed assignments and shut down NC State’s speed option, and the team smartly fit gaps when the Wolfpack rolled out a jumbo-flexbone tribute to Paul Johnson. Tech’s offensive line gradually wore down the NC State front, leading to long late-game runs for McMillan and Rogers. Motley gutted out good plays and grinders alike to keep the defense honest, and a sharp secondary performance limited Wolfpack QB Jacoby Brissett to barely a hundred yards passing while an aggressive Hokie front gave him some hard licks and a dirty jersey. And the penalty breaks even went Tech’s way.
