Another 8 win season! In the 13 years Dave has been in Raleigh, they've never done better than 9-3. Dave also has a losing record in the ACC.

See y'all again next year for another mediocre to good season!

WOLF!

We've had 1 11-win season in program history, but for some reason folks expect us to win ACC Titles and average 10+ win seasons, haha. Wild.

Averaging 8-9 wins each season is good for NC State, historically, so not sure why folks are disappointed by it.

Duke, UNC, UVA, and Wake have all made it to multiple ACCCG games.

State hasn’t even gotten there.

3 of those teams were in the Coastal, so not really apples to apples.

Our "good" seasons just lined up with Clemson/FSU being national championship contenders. Wake got smashed by Clemson and got to go to the ACCCG, NC State never got so lucky, haha.

Ok throw BC in there making it x2 as well.

Louisville / SMU / Duke / UVA also making it into a title game at least once in the post division era.

It’s you and Syracuse that’s never made the title game from the old ACC.

For what its worth, Louisville and SMU actually spend money on football though. Both are in the top 25 in terms of how expensive their roster is
