25. NC State Wolfpack (7-3)
Week 11 Result: Lost to Wake Forest 45-42
NC State entered last week with a golden opportunity — with a win over Wake Forest, the Wolfpack would claim first place in the ACC Atlantic division and would need just two more wins to clinch a spot in the ACC Championship. Quarterback Devin Leary did his best to lead NC State to victory. The QB threw four touchdown passes and two interceptions — although both INTs were followed by two Wake turnovers, as well. Zonovan Knight returned a kickoff 100 yards to open the third quarter to give the Wolfpack a 27-24 lead, but that was the last time State would be ahead.
