FSU 36, NC State 29; 3:44 1H. Both teams have been sloppy of late. State had a stretch with four turnovers in less than three minutes; FSU with four in the past 2:04. Seminoles shooting 61.5 percent from the field. The other team continues to shoot well against the Pack.
FSU 20, NC State 17; 10:07, 1H. FSU shooting 56 percent, and getting a lot of good looks close to the basket. Fourteen points in the paint for the Seminoles. And, actually a game that's exceeding its 9 pm vibe. A section or two has even filled in a bit.
FSU 12, N.C. State 11; 13:37 1H. Both teams 5-for-11 from the field. Wolfpack, by the way, seeking its first win here since 2015. Have lost five straight in Tallahassee. Has won at every other ACC venue since its most recent win here.
