Posted Nov 20, 2017
NC State and North Carolina have been on different paths for much of the season. After a 6-1 start, NC State is 1-3, with losses coming against Notre Dame, Clemson and Wake Forest. UNC, meanwhile, started 1-8 but has bounced back with consecutive wins over Pittsburgh and Western Carolina. Notably, turnover margin has been the difference in winning and losing.
