Eugene, Sutton Lead Pack to 31-27 Win Over Heels

December 12, 2007 on 9:20 pm | In Athletics |

As coach Tom O'Brien promised last spring, NC State's football players won't be sitting at next year's athletics banquet, thanks to Saturday's 31-27 victory over North Carolina at Carter-Finley Stadium. The team had been denied that privilege when athletics director Lee Fowler asks all athletes who beat the rival Tar Heels to stand up for recognition in recent years after losing three consecutive games to its Triangle neighbor. But O'Brien promised boosters during his spring meetings that his players wouldn't be seated next spring, and thanks to the play of tailback Jamelle Eugene and a last-ditch defensive stand that kept the Tar Heels out of the end zone on the next-to-last play of the game.
