N.C. State ends Old Tuffy collab with New Belgium

Driving the news: Just weeks before the start of tailgating season, N.C. State announced that it was ending its collaboration with the brewer, which has a large production facility in Asheville.

Why it matters: Beyond having a great logo, a portion of sales of Old Tuffy supported scholarships for N.C. State students.

• It also means that the Wolfpack will be signing a new beer sponsorship — which the school says will be announced at the start of the season.
