NC State Beats Wake Forest 34–24 Behind Smothers’ Big Night and Second-Half Shutdown


Reese, Pam and Alex discuss NC State's 3-0 record after last night's win over Wake Forest.
Dave Doeren and the NC State Wolfpack defeated the Wake Forest Demon Deacons 34-24 in a comeback win last night. Wake Forest started strong, jumping out to a 14-0 lead in the first quarter thanks to a 98-yard kickoff return and a big reception by Chris Barnes. However, NC State took control in the second half, shutting down the Demon Deacons' offense, which managed just two first downs and 39 total yards after halftime. Running back Hollywood Smothers led the charge for the Wolfpack with a dominant performance, rushing for 163 yards. The Wolfpack are now 3-0 and CJ Bailey has been balling. How good are the Pack this season?
The Kansas City Chiefs will face the Philadelphia Eagles this weekend Sunday, September 14, 2025, at 4:25 PM ET at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium. The game is highly anticipated as a rematch of last season’s Super Bowl, where the Eagles beat the Chiefs 40-22. Kansas City is looking to bounce back after a Week 1 loss to the Chargers in Brazil, while Philadelphia enters the game with momentum after a win over the Cowboys. Who will win?
