N.C. State athletics director Lee Fowler has been on the phone with the PapaJohn's, Independence Bowl, Texas and Motor City bowls trying to land a spot for the Wolfpack.
The athletic department has put together DVDs to send each bowl showing the Pack's strong finish and featuring and All-ACC quarterback in Russell Wilson.
The Wolfpack ended the season on a four-game winning streak and Fowler has talked about the excitement level and the prospects of a bowl bid.
"There are 6-6 teams not excited about going to a bowl, we are a 6-6 team that is extremely excited about the opportunity to go bowling." He added that a lot of where State lands will depend on who wins and loses between now and Saturday.
There is speculation at State that the Hawaii Bowl is considering the Wolfpack, but this is not an ACC bowl game so the possibility of heading to Hawaii will take some time.
The ACC is handling all conversations about N.C. State and the Hawaii Bowl.
