ESPN'S TAKE
Jim Donnan The Wolfpack received a dominating performance from their defense. When playing in your first-ever bowl game, it helps to get off to a fast start. South Florida didn't do that. The Bulls could not capitalized on some chances early in the game and their passing game was ineffective. If NC State can find a way to improve its passing attack, the Wolfpack will be dangerous in 2006. -- Jim Donnan
