Final minutes leave Pack stunned Posted Jan 8, 2006 N.C. State made a quick exit from the Smith Center on Saturday following its 82-69 loss to North Carolina. Within five minutes after Coach Herb Sendek spoke to the media, N.C. State's players were on the bus and heading down I-40 -- a trip that must have seemed like an eternity after the Wolfpack suffered its fifth straight loss to the Tar Heels on an afternoon when it was expected to come home with a win.
