The Canes are 3-1 and coming off of an emotional overtime win over Georgia Tech. Time to refocus our attention to this weeks opponent as UM welcomes NC State to town.

The Woldfpack have the same record as us, but have yet to get their ACC cherry popped this year. Here's to hoping we make their first time painful, awkward, and with lots of crying afterward.
2. What happened the last time Miami played NC State?
From the Associated Press:
Once again, Wilson's mobility caused headaches for an opposing defense. The redshirt freshman had a 29-yard scramble to set up his short TD toss to Brown on the Wolfpack's first drive, then scored from 29 yards early in the second quarter on a keeper to tie the game at 14. Wilson also extended his school-record streak of 226 passes without an interception, the longest in the nation. In his past eight starts, Wilson has thrown 16 touchdown passes with no picks.
It was the Russell Wilson show that day. I didn't even know Russell Wilson was a real person until this game. Wilson ran circles around our defense all day long. Now he's starting as a rookie with Seahawks and doing in the NFL what he did in college. Miami was 10 days removed from getting their *** kicked on a nationally televised game against Georgia Tech and had nothing to play for. This game was also the last time Robert Marve wore a Miami uniform.
3. Who to be scared of:
Mike Glennon
They've only played 4 games, but Glennon already has thrown 85 of 134 (63.4%) for 982 yards. He's a 5th year senior, having to sit in Wilson's shadow for the bulk of his college career. Now he's in his 2nd season as a starter and he's doing a pretty good job, a helluva lot better than his ****** brother Sean. Expect him to light up our secondary like a Christmas tree just like Chase Rettig did in the Boston College game.
4. Player that will score against us:
Bryan Underwood
All Underwood does is catch touchdowns. He leads the team in touchdowns with 4 (1 in each game) on just 9 receptions. Whether it's a deep ball (two 40+ yard TD's) or in the redzone, he will score.
5. Person that will **** you off:
Quintin Payton
Payton is the go to receiver for the Wolfpack, leading the team in both receptions (17) and yards (338). Against their toughest opponent this year (Tennessee), he had over 100 yards receiving including one that went for 49 yards. This is the guy that will be moving the sticks and getting open over the middle to keep drives alive. When it's 3rd and long and we need a stop, he will come up with a big time catch and make you break your cell phone. Prepare yourself.
6. Official Internet meme for this game:
Insanity Wolf
Just ******* win.
