What A Game

Pic I took of the NCSU band forming "State" on the field.

During the half, they did "Thriller" (including the dance). Pretty awesome!

As you probably know by now, NC State pulled off a great win against rival Florida State. In case you missed it, here's a little recap: the Pack scored the first TD, but then the 'Noles came back and tied it all up. FSU would tack on two more TDs off Wolfpack miscues, making it 21-7 at the half. I was sitting right under Vaughn Towers, so I had a view of the whole stadium and the parking lot. It was so ridiculous to see some Wolfpack "fans" leaving the stadium and heading to their cars after the first half. Come on, people!

Back to the game, NCSU came back with a vengence, scoring two TDs of their own to tie it at 21. FSU scored a field goal to make it 24-21, but the pack were not done yet. After converting a couple 3rd downs, State had the ball on the FSU 1 yard line and, on 4th down got the TD on a pass play, making it 28-24 Pack. The 'Noles still had time and drove the ball all the way down to the NCSU 4 yard line, where FSU QB Christian Ponder fumbled and the 'Pack recovered, sealing the deal 28-24.

Man, what a game! This is by far the best game of the season for the team. It was so much fun to go and be apart of it. I think I just got my first taste of dealing with the "Cardiac Pack". Hopefully NC State can keep it going. GO PACK!
