No relief in sight

N.C. State could easily be 1-5 after its first six games. And the schedule doesn’t let up, even after the midway point.

Following the 37-17 loss to Boston College on Saturday, the football team plays Wofford at Carter-Finley Stadium on Sept. 15. Assuming a win that Saturday night, the Wolfpack will then have three games against top teams.

Two home games against top-25 teams in Clemson (Sept. 22) and Louisville (Sept. 29), then a trip to Florida State – three games in which State will be a heavy underdog.

The football team does get East Carolina and a struggling Virginia team after Florida State. However, State travels to Miami on Nov. 3.

And to wrap up the season, State gets North Carolina, Wake Forest and Maryland – teams that have given the Pack a hard time in recent years.

While the Pack might be 0-2 now, the season could get worse before it gets any better.
