WOLFPACK SPOTLIGHT DRIVE
14 plays, 70 yards in 6:16 - Dayes 3-rd TD rush
After Miami scored back-to-back TDs to open the second half, NC State responded with its own scoring drive at the end of the quarter. Starting at its own 30, NC State went 70 yards in 14 plays capped off with a Matthew Dayes 3-yard TD run. On the drive, Finley was 4-of-6 for 41 yards, while Dayes had four rushes for 20 yards.

STAT LEADERS
QB Ryan Finley
20-of-44 for 210 yards
RB Matthew Dayes

WR Stephen Louis
5 catches for 70 yards

NOTABLES
• In the third quarter, RB Matthew Dayes went over 1,000 yards rushing for the season. Days becomes the first Wolfpack player with 1000+ rushing yards in a season since T.A. McClendon in 2002, and he is only the eighth player in school history to accomplish the feat.
• 14 NC State seniors were recognized before the game for Senior Day, playing their final home game at Carter-Finley Stadium.
UP NEXT
The Pack will close out the regular season with a trip to rival North Carolina next Friday. The game will kick at noon, and be televised nationally by ESPN.
