Wake Forest (2-2) at North Carolina State (1-2), -4

42 degrees, stormy

We win the toss and elect to receive. Wertz returns the ball 38 yards to our own 36. They're running an 8-man front against us this afternoon. First play is an illegal shift penalty on us, pushing us back 5 yards.

Spragan throws an incompletion, Macri loses 6 yards on a sweep, and a 10 yard completion to Clark gives us a 3 and out. 24 yard punt gives WF good field position at their own 41.

Unfortunately, they seem to be able to pass on us early on, getting completions of 16, 17 and 22 yards. 1st and 25 at our 27, due to an unsportmanlike conduct call against Wake. We finally hold them at our 11, forcing a FG attempt. On the first attempt, we make a bonehead play and run into the kicker - fortunately it's not enough for the first down. They try again, and it's good - Wake 3, N.C. State 0. We've held them to -8 yard rushing (no sacks, either), but they've passed for 71. Ugh.

We respond with an 11 play, 80 yard drive on our next series! Completed passes to Wertz (2) and Brodie, along with a few runs by Macri and Linquist is capped with a 19 yard pass from Spragan to Mackie for the TD. Extra point is good, N.C. State 7, WF 3 - 1:55 left in the 1st.

End of the 1st: N.C. State 7, Wake Forest 3
