NC State Football: 5 overreactions from Week 7 win over Pitt

NC State football is the leader in the ACC Atlantic division and there are some overreactions to be made.

The NC State Wolfpack are in good shape in the ACC standings but it’s still way too early to celebrate. Their 35-17 victory over the Pittsburgh Panthers on the road was a big step in the right direction for NC State.

Yes, the Wolfpack are the 16th-ranked team in the AP Poll with a 6-1 record. Yes, NC State has won five straight games and four straight conference games entering Week 8, but still there’s no need to overreact just yet.

On the bright side, the NC State Wolfpack are a bowl-eligible team regardless of the outcome of their final five games. They’re set to earn their highest win-total since head coach Dave Doeren’s second season when they went 8-5 in 2014.

The NC State Wolfpack are well on their way to a historic season, but they’ll have to keep up their consistency. Their 4-0 record in ACC play has them first in the Atlantic Division but the Clemson Tigers loom.

Here are five overreactions from their Week 7 victory over the Pittsburgh Panthers.
