Kansas +12
The N.C. State Wolfpack have dropped another player from the team's already depleted lineup for tonight's Tangerine Bowl against the Kansas Jayhawks .
Starting junior cornerback Greg Golden was sent home for disciplinary reasons the team announced Sunday. The school would not specify what Golden did.
Junior cornerback Dovonte Edwards will start in his place. Edwards has played in 11 games this season, earning 22 tackles, one interception and six pass breakups.
Golden is the third member of the Wolfpack's defense to be disciplined for the Tangerine Bowl. Defensive linemen Alan Halloway and Sheldon Lewin won't play in Orlando due to academic reasons.
On offense, meanwhile, starting offensive guard Ricky Fowler (knee) and backup tailback Josh Brown (abdominals) have been ruled out due to injuries. The club is also without back up center Brandon Sanders, who is not playing following the death of his mother.
Even the Wolfpack's special teams were not immune to unfortunate circumstances for tonight's bowl game. N.C. State will be without redshirt freshman kickoff specialist John Deraney, who returned home to Georgia to be with his ailing grandfather
Deraney booted 40 of his 75 kickoffs into the end zone for touchbacks this campaign. He'll be replaced by senior Adam Kiker, but don't be surprised if N.C. State gives up a few yards on kickoffs
