NC State's 27 Point Comeback vs. Maryland - November 26, 2011

NC State comes back from a 41-14 deficit versus Maryland to gain bowl eligibility during the final game of the regular season.
It was the second biggest comeback between two ACC teams in ACC history, and the biggest comeback in NC State history. It's a game that included 35 fourth quarter points, and 42 unanswered points.
ACC Network/Raycom, get rid of your stupid bottomline.

First football game I ever went to. Now I'm a State student. Go Pack!

[@nathanwarren6846]

How’d it go at state?

[@trippbraxton1]

NC state was lethal at home that year. Coming from a Clemson fan

[@cotegt]

when you lose a game after having a 27 point lead in the 2nd half, part of your soul is lost too.

[@MrScotty2Hotty28]

definetely

[@jebxbouck94]

im actually a Michigan fan, but i remember seeing this on ESPN, watching in amazement as NC State scored TD after TD....wow what a comback

[@taylorc8244]

I was at this game. It was my dads birthday, we didn’t come back in until it was 41-28. Awesome comeback, said the only reason they won was because it was his birthday. Go Pack,

[@johnlabus7359]

I'll never forget that game. It was magical! I am so glad that I was there.

So glad I was there this was one of the craziest games I’ve ever witnessed!!!

[@xTooGood4Ux]

Thank you for this footage. I missed the game and ive been lookin for it for a while :)

[@mrnickels100]

I was raised a UNC fan but I go to State. I was at Keenan this past weekend. That was the best football game I had ever seen live.

[@CrimsonFlameRTR]

Hats off to you for making the perfect football montage. Perfect blend of music and actual commentary. I always hate ones that are all music

[@Nippykeene]

Good job, NCSU01! Thanks. Go State! Mike Glennon has emerged as a Leader. He tied two State Records: • Glennon tied the school record for touchdown responsibility as he threw for 5 TDs and ran for 1 to finish with 6 TDs. PR in 2002 against Navy is the only other State player to total 6 TDs in a game. • Glennon tied the school record with 5 TD passes in a game. Glennon is the 5th State player to throw 5 TDs in a game.

[@apokalypz08]

I left at half and had fun watching from tailgate lot. Learned my lesson about leaving early, however, not like I cared if we came back and beat Maryland... if it was Clemson, I might have been upset to have missed staying in there.

[@ncsu1]

Thank you! Completely agree.

[@eMan2718281828]

This was my first NCSU football game...I dunno how anything is gonna beat this.

[@pipyon81]

The camera doesn’t catch how many people left after Maryland scored that touchdown in the second half

[@cgault11]

I have a rule. If I attend a NC State game I never leave before the clock says "0:00". As a student in college this was the closest I have ever been to leaving a game early. Certainly glad i stayed. :) #gopack

[@DFresh4Life419]

Great job on this video. Gave me goosebumps.

[@BigDDan]

your right... we won't have to come back when we are leading the whole game.

[@CrustyMuffin402]

O'brian just saved his job. Hope amerson gets the record. Subbed

I was there too. It was INSANE.

[@harriosngrant6726]

what a comeback by state

[@tomatoface12]

Im a UNC fan, but damn, that was impressive. Funny how this rivalry can be so lopsided in one sport (football) then lopsided in another sport (basketball) lol. Best of luck to yall next season. Bout time that 5 game winning streak ends though lol

[@gilleyandbrianshow]

this is going to be a TOUGH game for tennessee.

[@theredskinsfan8989]

lol i remember accidentally falling asleep at half time and then i remember them only being down by a TD and i was like wtf happened

[@greermoore5528]

The greatest comeback in history of NC state

[@Raugturi]

It's the best by the numbers, but I feel like we all probably love the end of 2021 game against UNC a little more. Two TDs with an onside kick recovery in 25 seconds in the last 2 minutes of the 4th quarter against the evil of all evils is pretty much the perfect comeback.

[@chitsweire]

That roughing the passer call was criminal.

[@tommykun1990]

He's starting!!!

[@ajkdsfasdf90]

Either way, that was a blown hold call against UMD on our receiver

[@ncsu1]

@TheCoreyBritton 300 Violin Orchestra - Jorge Quintero

[@BaseballGuy316]

awesome...glennon best qb in draft in my opinion

[@nach0s]

Maryland coach @ 4:33 : "Sir, I respectfully request you review the previous play. I shall patiently await your response. Thank you."

[@temple76502]

So funny how it turned out for the Glennon brothers. The older brother Sean goes to a bigger fan base school at VT and performs horribly as for his younger brother get his shot at a smaller fan base school and performs quite well. O brien REALLY took a gamble replacing Wilson with a QB that had a older brother that flaked out in college but it seemed to had paid off.

[@jordanjones_529]

And now 10 years later to the day, NC State does the same thing to UNC. Something about 11/26....

[@jacoblocke1371]

At 4:33 if you read the coaches lips he’s saying, “that’s bulls**t, that’s bulls**t.”

[@McCall72]

2nd half adjustment? Activate Beast Mode.

[@Birdnals5]

It was a great comeback but I'm still mad that State was down 41-14.

[@halofan813]

We outplayed them the entire game, just got several really bad bounces in the first half.

[@braydenhamilton2655]

GO PACK!!!

[@katieandbrandont]

LETS GO WOLFPACK!!

[@jacksonleach7870]

Picked off! BALL GAME!

[@SealofPerfection]

TOB was gone after that game if they didn't come back. Should have been canned anyway, needing to beat a sorry team like that just to go to a bowl, not to mention having to make a record comeback to do it.

[@RayZon97]

Go Bucs!

[@Cornguy98]

I saw this live..... AFTER WATCHING OHIO STATE LOSE TO MICHIGAN :'(

[@jrgs906]

What are you smoking? Glennon has loads of potential, but he doesn't have the wow factor like Wilson. Wilson's going to the superbowl this year. Meanwhile, Glennon will get the start halfway through the season when Freeman screws up.

[@therinsig]

TAKE THAT TURTLES

[@xpatrick27xX]

the guy at 3:40 who cant get a high five haha.

[@jebbrammer]

Why can't NC State play like they did in the fourth quarter every quarter?

[@viralencore85]

The wold and turtle have a race. Who thought the wolf would win? LOL

Fitting revenge for those bastards robbing us out of a trip to the ACC Championship the year before.

Yeah, because we won't be down 27 with 6:00 left in the third >_>

[@phism]

"That's bullshit."

Haha similarly I saw this after watching Michigan end 2926 days from hell.

Maryland football in a nutshell

[@NathanaelPhillips]

That was an incredible second half!!!!

[@McCall72]

I was in Crapel Hill that day watching the Holes vs Blue Devils with my Tarheel bro inlaw. The u*NC fans were having a field day with every Maryland score in the 1st half chanting "fear the turtle" and whatnot. Then later it was comments like "that score can't be right" and "what the hell is going on in Raleigh?" from the heel fans. LOL

[@rgorrell47]

I was there Nd almost left at half. Sooo glad I didn't. This video doesn't really do the game much justice. You had to have been there to get the full experience. Carter Finley was the loudest it's ever been and ALL the players and fans of nc state were just going crazy!!! One of the best memories of my life. Go pack!! Hooowwwwllllllll!!!!

[@Wilks2525]

This is my favorite nc state game OF ALL TIME!!!

[@ALGolfer29]

Still gives me chills. Go wolfpack!

[@brickwall49]

Oh, and one more thing, NC State did not get crushed by Maryland. There is a reason we needed Glennon to throw 5 touchdown pass and run for 1 to actually be in the game. NC State almost blew it when Earl Wolff fumbled and I was talking to alot of NC State fans down by 27 about who our next coach would be.. That game shouldn't have been close.

[@Antznewz]

I remember watching this game on tv, we were hyped af

[@temple76502]

smallER fan base school compared to schools like VT, UT, etc, its a smaller fan base school, doesnt take any special knowledge to know that, its just common sense

Sorry I missed Wolff's interception. Not really sure how it didn't make it in there. I'm pretty sure I even had it recorded and ready to put in but somehow I missed it, trying to get the highlights put together quickly.

I was there from beginning to end. Its funny how me and my friend are half-optimistic at the end of the first half, saying we only need two TDs per remaining 2 quarters (and that UMD need not score no more). Best NCSU game I have seen in my 5 years at State. Go Pack!
