It’s hard to tell what in particular Tech switched up at halftime, but N.C. State has adapted to Al Groh’s blitzes by working in a screen and play-action rollouts. Wilson has also started faking a screen after every other handoff or so.
State covered 78 yards in a little over four minutes, with the touchdown scored on a circle route. Jarvis Williams set up shop behind Tech’s D-line and waited for linebackers to obligingly vacate.
