Football First-down woes for NC State's offense...

[Jacey Zembal]

There will be talking points on a lot of things this upcoming week, and playing VMI will help in that regard. This is one area that absolutely has to get better for the Wolfpack offense.

Fourth Quarter:

1-10, NCSU 23: Armstrong’s pass incomplete

1-10, NCSU 26: Two penalties, and it becomes 1-25, NCSU 11 — Armstrong throws interception

1-10, NCSU 25: Delbert Mimms rushes for 4 yards

1-10, NCSU 45: Armstrong’s pass incomplete

1-10, NCSU 35: Kendrick runs for 1 yard

1-10, ND 47: Armstrong’s pass incomplete

•••

First Quarter: 3 runs for 6 yards; 1-2 passing for 2 yards

Second Quarter: 3 runs for 4 yards; 2-8 passing for 7 yards and an interception

Third Quarter: 4 runs for 14 yards and a touchdown; 2-5 passing for 48 yards

Fourth Quarter: 3 runs for minus-2 yards; 1-5 passing for 23 yards and a touchdown, plus an interception

•••

Totals: 13 carries for 22 yards and a touchdown;

6-of-20 passing for 80 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions

Essentially, it came down to the 38-yarder to Lesane and 23-yard touchdown to Collins, and then three other nice first-down gains that helped set up second down.
