First Quarter


The game kicked off with the Hurricanes establishing an early lead. The 'Canes managed to score 10 points in this quarter, setting a tone of dominance that would persist throughout the game. The Wolfpack struggled offensively, unable to put any points on the board during this period.


Second Quarter


Miami continued their offensive prowess into the second quarter by adding another 14 points. Meanwhile, NC State's defense tried valiantly to contain Miami’s aggressive plays but found themselves overwhelmed by their opponent’s precision and speed.


Third Quarter


In the third quarter, Chase Bond stood out for NC State with a sack and tackle for loss that momentarily halted Miami’s momentum. However, despite these defensive efforts and Bond's notable performance contributing one of his team's few sacks of quarterback hits, Miami added another 10 points to their tally.


Fourth Quarter


The final quarter saw some action from NC State as CJ Bailey scored a rushing touchdown from ten yards out—marking Pack's only score of the game. Yet again though it was not enough; Miami matched this effort with seven more points sealing their victory decisively.
