Initial injury report encouraging for NC State

RALEIGH, NORTH CAROLINA - NOVEMBER 1: The initial injury report for NC State ahead of their Week 0 conference game against Virginia indicates that the Pack had a relatively healthy camp season. No key players were listed in the report. Virginia's injury list, on the other hand, is notably longer. CB Kam Robinson and S Corey Costner are among the Cavaliers' injured players.

RB Solomon Beebe and WR Rico Flores are officially out for the game. NC State freshman WR Tyreek Copper is also out. Freshman RB Isaiah Crowell, who missed all of last season with an injury, might still be coming back from that issue. Teddy Hoffman has been out for the whole season due to a positive PED test. Tyreek Copper, a true freshman, probably wouldn't have seen much playing time even if he were healthy.

The most important injury to watch for on Saturday is that of UVA's star linebacker Kam Robinson, who tore his ACL last November. If he is able to play, he could be a significant difference-maker for the Cavalier's team.
