Tennessee beat NC State so bad that the Wolfpack called a team meeting after the game

The Tennessee Vols were so dominant in their 51-10 win against NC State in Charlotte last Saturday night that the Wolfpack called a team meeting after the game to "air some stuff out".

"We had a team meeting and we kind of just aired some stuff out," said NC State defensive lineman Noah Potter on Tuesday. "Things that we need to work on. And it was a good talk, it wasn't berating one another. Just uplifting guys. Still holding people accountable. We didn't come out the way we needed to on Saturday."

NC State wide receiver Noah Rogers also discussed the team meeting on Tuesday with reporters.

"The leadership here is great," said Rogers. "And they know the standard. After our game, as a team, we talked. And that's what we need -- we need that leadership to keep everybody bought in."

NC State has a good team. Dave Doeren is a good coach. And the Wolfpack will be relevant in the ACC. They just ran into a buzzsaw against the Volunteers.

Still, you know you beat a team bad when they had to call a team meeting after the game.

I'm sure the Vols are hoping this won’t be the last team meeting that one of their opponents has to call after facing them.
