As many of you know, I am a big fan of making trackers. I had great expectations for our ability to connect on deep bombs last season, but we ended up falling short of my expectations.
This season, I am confident we will not be as dependent on bombs, but instead will be methodical and break off big chunks. For that reason, this year, I plan on tracking:
Rushes of 15+ yards
Passes of 20+ yards
Kick Returns of 40+ yards
Punt Returns of 20+ yards
Sacks/TFLs of 5+ yards
Defensive Turnovers (INT, Fumble Recoveries, 4th down stops)
Special Teams Turnovers

Game Notes Notable plays that fell just short of our metrics
-Sampson runs of 12, 14, and 14 yards
-Nico run of 12 yards
-2 TFLS at 3 yards (we had 13 total, many of them <3 yards)
-3 Nico passes (shovel to Sampson for 17, Kitselman for 16, TD to Staes for 18)
-Squirrel White punt returns of 11 and 16 yards
Honorable Mentions
-Kickoff not fielded by NC State, we tackled them inside the 10
JUST MISSED IT
-Bru slightly overthrown for would-be 51-yard TD
-Thornton slightly overthrown for would-be 23-yard TD
-Kitselman 57-yard TD called back for bogus penalty
