The NC State Wolfpack haven't won a game against the Wake Forest Demon Deacons since Oct. 1 of 2016, but they'll be looking to end the drought on Saturday. The Wolfpack will face off against Wake Forest at 8 p.m. ET at Carter-Finley Stadium. Last year was nothing to brag about for NC State (4-8), so the team is looking forward to a new start.
