Wolfpack Football: In Search of Win #1

Written by C. Sherwood and filed under Sports 

WolfpackAfter a rocky start to say the least, the Wolfpack football team looks for win #1 of the season, and the Tom O’Brien era, this Saturday against Wofford. The 1-AA Wofford Terriers have won both of their first two games, while the Pack sits at 0-2 after last weeks defeat at Boston College. Game time on Saturday is 6:00 PM at Carter Finley Stadium.

Much of the talk this week surrounded the play from the quarterback position. Harrison Beck took the reigns last week, showing flashes of excellence, but turning the ball over 6 times – a stat that all but cripples your chances of winning. Beck will get another opportunity this week to show he can play within the system and make smart decisions. I think we’ll see a better performance and I believe that Beck can develop into a solid player over the next few years.

Also notable is the fact that every Division 1-A team is on alert when they take on a 1-AA team now, thanks to Appalachian State. I expect the Pack to be well prepared this week and to end their 9 game losing streak.

A fun fact via gopack.com – the last time these two programs met was 1920, when the North Carolina A&T “Farmers” (now the NC State Wolfpack) defeated the Wofford College Terriers 90-7.
