RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) β North Carolina State coach Dave Doeren waited a year to get Florida transfer Jacoby Brissett into his lineup. It didn’t take the quarterback nearly so long to completely change the Wolfpack’s offense.
Brissett leads the Atlantic Coast Conference with 13 touchdown passes against just one interception. He has also stabilized a position plagued by injuries and poor play a year ago, helping the Wolfpack steadily build confidence heading into Saturday’s game at Clemson.
Brissett threw for 359 yards and three touchdown passes in last weekend’s loss to top-ranked Florida State.
With Brissett, North Carolina State is second in the league in scoring at 40.4 points per game while averaging a league-best 505.6 yards β about 100 yards more than a year ago.
