    Postgame Podcast: NC State falls short in 63-61 loss to UNC

    Postgame Podcast: Recapping NC State's New Year's Eve Blunder at UVA

    NC State went into Charlottesville and played its best half of basketball in the first half but flopped in the second in a 70-67 loss to the Hoos. The Wolfpack fell to 1-1 in ACC play with the loss and hurt its resumé by falling to a team barely inside the Top 100 in the NET rankings. Cory Smith and Brian Geisinger take a look back on what worked so well in the first half, what led to the second-half collapse, the status of Ben Middlebrooks and where the Pack goes from here after the road loss.

    Postgame Podcast: NC State crumbles late in Military Bowl loss to ECU

    ANNAPOLIS, MD. -- Just when it appeared NC State would win its fourth straight over ECU and finally snap a four-game losing streak in bowl games, the Wolfpack fumbled the bag. Even with two fourth-quarter interceptions from Tamarcus Cooley to gift-wrap the offense a chance to put the game away late, State went conservative and was done in late by a back-breaking 86-yard TD from ECU and interception on the final drive. Cory Smith and Michael Clark look back on the befuddling loss for the Wolfpack, Hollywood Smothers' huge night -- despite not getting a touch in the third quarter -- a rollercoaster ride in the fourth quarter and the brawl with less than one minute left.
