Notes

  1. ↑ NC State claims a forfeit win over UCLA in the 2021 Holiday Bowl which was canceled after UCLA withdrew from the game due to COVID-19 issues in the Bruins' program. [10] The disputed win would be the program's 10th win of the 2021 season—the NCAA and ACC do not recognize the forfeit, ruling the bowl a no contest. [11]
