N.C. State hosts Stanford on Saturday. The matchup pairs two teams with one win in Atlantic Coast Conference play. The Wolfpack's last game was a win at California before an open date. N.C. State put together a strong finish after an open date last year, winning five straight games. Stanford is making its third cross-country trip in league play this year.

State's defense and Stanford's offense.
