NC State Wolfpack Football Tickets
Cheer on the Wolfpack with your NC State football tickets from TicketSmarter. While many may be familiar with the exciting NC State basketball teams of old, Wolfpack football has achieved moderate success throughout the years. The first football game in NC State history was played in 1892. It was in 1894 that the long-standing rivalry against the UNC Tar Heels was born. While the Wolfpack has enjoyed more victories over the centuries, the Tar Heels steamrolled State 44-0 in that inaugural matchup.
NC State was originally known as The North Carolina College of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts. In the first few decades of competition, the NC State football team was known as the Aggies and then the Farmers, until being dubbed the Wolfpack in 1921. Since 1953, fans have been able to purchase NC State football tickets for games against Atlantic Coast Conference opponents.
The team immediately enjoyed success in the ACC, winning five ACC titles during the span from 1957 through 1968. Legendary head coach Lou Holtz took over the team from 1972 through 1975. He led the Wolfpack to bowl games every season. The 1972 team knocked off West Virginia at the Peach Bowl. Holtz was hired away to be the head coach of the New York Jets at the end of the 1972 season.
Former Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers graduated from North Carolina State. From 2000 through 2003, he led the team to multiple victories, including their win over Notre Dame in the 2002 Gator Bowl. Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson played his freshman year at NC State. He became the first rookie in ACC history to be given first-team all-conference honors at the quarterback position.
