NC State did everything possible to comeback from a large early deficit, but couldn't muster up defensive stops late in a 34-30 loss to Wake Forest. The Wolfpack leaned on CJ Bailey again after a Grayson McCall injury, but a 10-point lead wasn't enough as Wake methodically drove down the field twice to salt away the win.

Cory Smith and Michael Clark recap the befuddling loss with a look at Bailey's performance, the offense finding life late and the defense struggling to close the game out. Watch or listen to the full podcast to get all of that and more!
