First quarter mountain too tough for Pack to climb

Posted Nov 28, 2015
Dave Doeren regularly tells his team, “Don’t look at the mountain, just climb.” From the very first drive of NC State’s 45-34 loss to No. 11 North Carolina, his team had to heed that mantra. The Wolfpack (7-5, 3-5 ACC) gave up touchdowns on each of UNC’s (11-1, 8-0 ACC) first two drives to face a 14-0 hill to start its second possession. (WRAL Sports Fan)
