  Thayer Thomas had a 76-yard punt return for a touchdown in the third quarter while Max Fisher blocked a fourth-quarter punt to set up another score and help North Carolina State beat Ball State 34-23 on Saturday night. Malik Dunlap recovered Fisher's block, putting the Wolfpack at the Cardinals' 7-yard line. Matthew McKay scored on a keeper three plays later at the 8:41 mark to help the Wolfpack stay in control. "I feel like the special teams the second half really won us the game," Thomas said.

McKay also ran for a second-quarter TD for N.C. State (3-1), which saw its offense slow significantly after halftime. But the Wolfpack turned away the Cardinals' last best push on Chris Ingram's end-zone interception with 3:43 left. Justin Hall and Caleb Huntley ran for scores for Ball State (1-3), which entered with one of the nation's top passing attacks behind Drew Plitt. Plitt threw for 333 yards but failed to connect for a score for the first time this year. "We had a couple of opportunities there that we needed to finish the deal," Ball State coach Mike Neu said, "and we didn't get that done." - North Carolina State/AP College Football

  North Carolina State receiver C.J. Riley will miss the rest of the season after tearing a knee ligament on a special teams play. Coach Dave Doeren said Monday that Riley tore his left anterior cruciate ligament during the Wolfpack's 34-6 victory over East Carolina. The junior was injured while covering a punt late in the first quarter. He lunged to tackle returner Tyler Snead but missed and immediately grabbed his knee in pain. Riley caught 28 passes for 315 yards and two touchdowns last season and was being counted upon to help replace Kelvin Harmon and Jakobi Meyers. Freshman Devin Carter was listed as the starter on the depth chart for this week's game against Western Carolina. - AP College Football

  Marshall's secondary is getting a top-tier talent with some in-state flavor, it appears. On Wednesday, Marshall athletic director Mike Hamrick confirmed that former West Virginia University defensive back and South Charleston standout Derrek Pitts has been admitted and is enrolled at Marshall University this summer. The news of Pitts' enrollment was first reported by MetroNews. "Pitts is enrolled," Hamrick said by phone while traveling from Washington. "He is admitted and enrolled in class." Questions surrounding Pitts' immediate eligibility with the Herd were not known, but Pitts has three years to play two seasons while having an available redshirt year as well.

If forced to sit out the 2019 season under NCAA transfer rules, Pitts will still have two seasons left, starting in 2020. When Pitts committed and signed with West Virginia in the Class of 2017, many around the state rejoiced because the state was able to keep one of its top prospects from going out of state for school. Pitts was heralded as the 23rd-best safety overall in the class and had several offers from Power 5 programs. - Charleston Gazette-Mail
