NC State and East Carolina meet in next season’s opener. But first, the Military Bowl

There are times when a postseason bowl seems like the first game of next year for the participating teams. “Hour and a half down the road and you’re playing — whether you play every year or don’t play every year — I think it’s still a rivalry,” East Carolina coach Blake Harrell said. Our players still think that’s a rivalry.” NC State leads the series 19-13 and has won three straight — but East Carolina won three in a row before that. “It’s weird playing a team that we open with next year,” Wolfpack coach Dave Doeren said. But yeah, finishing with who you open with is unique.” Postseason history NC State and East Carolina met in the Peach Bowl in 1992 — during an eight-year hiatus in their regular-season series.
