Day 1,988, Quasi-Quarantine: The Pack Gets Off To A Positive Start Despite Uneven Effort

 

Staying almost impossibly on brand, the Wolfpack made things unnecessarily hard on themselves last night, outlasting East Carolina, 24-17, after opening up a 17-0 advantage.

Some thoughts:
  • It's always good to go 1-0.
  • In year 13, coach Dave Doeren is still abysmal at game management. Which -- judging by his title -- is a pretty big part of his job description.
  • State's front seven is going to be pretty difficult to deal with.
  • One game in, the Pack has serious concerns along the offensive line. Again.
  • NC State should never play East Carolina. There is literally nothing to gain from this for the Red and White. Make it stop.
Onward. Go Pack.
