Danny O'Brien threw for a career-high 417 yards with four touchdowns to Torrey Smith. Maryland kept North Carolina State out of the ACC championship game by winning 38-31.
The Wolfpack, now 8-4/5-3, scored on their first two possessions to take a 14-0 lead. But the Terrapins, also now 8-4/5-3, rallied behind O'Brien, who made up for a running game that finished with negative yardage.
North Carolina State ends up in a second-place tie with Maryland behind Florida State, who faces Virginia Tech in the ACC championship game on December 5th.
Wolfpack coach Tom O'Brien, when asked, said about the loss: "They're really crushed. I don't think they fully comprehend what a great year they've really had, when you look at eight wins, the history of our school and how many times it's been done."
Especially when a lot of us thought NC State wouldn't be worth a flip-and-a-half.

Four NC State Players Up On Drug Charges
((HT: WTVD-TV Durham))
Four North Carolina State Wolfpack players face drug charges after police found marijuana in their off-campus apartment. An off-duty officer initially detected the presence of pot by smelling it and, then, obtained a search warrant.
Raleigh police say offensive tackle Jake Vermiglio and defensive tackles Markus Kuhn and J.R. Sweezy each were charged with possession of marijuana, possession of drug paraphernalia and maintaining a dwelling for the use of controlled substances.
All-Atlantic Coast Conference tight end George Bryan was charged with maintaining a dwelling for the use of controlled substances. All charges are misdemeanors.
The players were cited along with a fifth person, 22-year-old Allison Elaine Davis, who was in the apartment at the time of the search. It's not clear if she faces any charges at present.
Coach Tom O'Brien says in a statement that he is aware of the situation and "appropriate action will be taken."

TWTW: NC State...??? You're Kidding, Right...
((HT: WRALsportsfan.com))
Nope... they actually held on to beat North Carolina 28-27 Saturday.
“This is the hardest year I’ve ever been through,” NC State Head Coach Tom O’Brien said. “Your best football player on defense [linebacker Nate Irving] almost kills himself in the summer. You end the year with your offensive coordinator with cancer. We played with a walk-on corner the whole second half.”
O’Brien said his team was “like a MASH unit out there.”
“It’s a disaster right now,” he said. “Thank God it’s over. I don’t think we could play in a bowl if we wanted to.”
The Tarheels finish up at 8-4 and could, now, be going anywhere for a bowl...
O'Brien gets his wish and gets to stay home for the holidays...
From all impressions, this was the most excited Lieutenant Bogumil has been all year long...
Those of us at OSG HQ send our thoughts and prayers to Dana Bible and the whole Wolfpack family as they go through this together...
