FSU Football: 5 most important games for Willie Taggart in year one
By Kelvin Hunt
NC State
The dreaded game in Carter-Finley Stadium in Raleigh, NC. The actual date for the game hasn’t been set yet.
Hopefully it’s not the second or first game of a back-to-back like 2017 when the ‘Noles were originally set to play Miami and NC State in consecutive weeks.
We all know the history of going to this place as ‘Noles fans. It seemingly doesn’t matter FSU has the superior players and they always seem to find a way to hang around despite who the coaches are.
The good thing is NC State loses A LOT of senior leadership and could possibly lose starting quarterback Ryan Finley to the NFL Draft. If he leaves, that should give FSU and considerable advantage in the game coupled with the loss of Bradley Chubb and Jaylen Samuels.
More importantly, it’s a ACC Atlantic division game the ‘Noles must win in order to keep place with Clemson who’s ruled the division the past three seasons.
One other thing, it’s a great day anytime FSU can hand Dave Doeren a big fat L.
