LAWRENCE, KAN. -- NC State struggled early in a 75-60 loss to No. 10 Kansas despite getting a big night from the big men. The Wolfpack (7-4, 1-0 ACC) shot less than 37 percent from the field and missed too many free throws early, but it was an awful start to go down 15-0 that doomed the Wolfpack.
Cory Smith and Brian Geisinger will discuss the continued early woes for the Pack, how Ben Middlebrooks and Brandon Huntley-Hatfield provided a glimmer of optimism and where the Pack goes now after four non-conference losses to quality opponents.

The Wolfpack (6-3, 1-0 ACC) snapped a 14-game OT winning streak for the Noles behind massive efforts from Dontrez Styles and Marcus Hill inside the Lenovo Center.
