Wildest comeback I have ever witnessed in over 30 years sitting in 1 stadium.
We were at the NC State Maryland game and it was the third qtr. with State down 41 to 14 to Maryland. We were sitting there wondering how a team that hammered Clemson the week before could be down to Maryland by that much. Final score, NC State 56 Maryland 41. I've seen a lot of turnarounds in a game over that many years but can't remember that much of a swing that quick. 42 unanswered points, 35 in the 4th qtr. alone.

2. They were really bad looking today.
I guess they will keep them if it helps them recruit (kids might like them). We added color combinations this year as well but within our traditional look. Theirs may have been done by a designer but they look like they just picked colors and threw them in a blender.

4. Yes.
Disappointing season though. Early injuries gave us a bad start. By the 3rd game, we had 9 starters on defense out. Some came back in time to salvage something and get us in again. A what if season if you know what I mean. Mike Glennon who took over at quarterback when our coaching staff decided we wouldn't wait on Wilson to make up his mind again finished the day 36 of 55 with 1 int. and 5 TDs.

6. That will be a legendary game in betting circles
NC State not only won, but the interception return covered the spread, which was -11.5 to -13 depending when you shopped.

I'm sure plenty of tickets on NC State were torn up or discarded, long before the final.
