NC State senior quarterback Ryan Finley met with the media after the Wolfpack's 41-7 win over Georgia State.


“I think we did a lot of things better. I think we got off to a fast start, which is something we preached. The first drive of the third quarter, we’ve got to improve. We’ve got to get points on that first drive of the half. It’s just something we need to work on. […] I’m really excited for next week.”

“I think you said it: trustworthy. That’s the word I think of when I think of Thayer. That was an unbelievable grab there in the end zone. He’s special. He’s worked for it, and he’s earned the right to be on this stage. I’ve been really impressed with him.”

“I think it is really important in a game like that where you can get younger guys in the game. I think we got some guys in on the offensive line and then Matty Mac got in the game. That was exciting to get him in the box. The more times you can get a lot of depth in the game, the more time you can get them experience, that’s important.

“I was impressed with Trent. He had a really good game. We had personnelled a lot of things for him to get in the game, for him to get in the rhythm of the game. I think that was important. Him getting his first touchdown, that was exciting for me to be a part of that.”
