SPREADING THE WEALTH It is no secret that NC State likes to spread the ball around in the aerial game, as a total of 14 players have caught a pass this season. But the majority of the Wolfpack’s throws are not connecting with wide receivers. Instead, 112-of-196 passes (57 percent) have been caught by the tight ends, fullbacks and running backs. It means something different to everyone.

SENSATIONAL SOPHS For the second straight season, 70% of the Wolfpack squad is made up of freshmen and sophomores. Those #PACKPROS young players, particularly the sophomores, are making a big impact on the Wolfpack defense. (Pack alums on 2015 NFL rosters)

Five of NC State’s top six tacklers this season are all sophomores: WLB Airius Moore is 1st with 61, DE Bradley David Amerson Oakland Raiders Chubb is 2nd with 52, SS Josh Jones is third with 44, DT B.J.
