Pack vs. Noles – Bytes & Gameday Shitstorm Thread

I’m going to try very hard not to watch this train wreck, so don’t expect many updates. But there needed to be a place for the masochists to put their comments. For broader topics of conversation, your SFN profile also works on our message board forums that can be accessed by clicking here.

So, here you go. You’re welcome.

A few items of interest:

  • NC State will play this game without two more injured starters, including the ‘quarterback’ of our offensive defense. (Link) Due to the injury to Graham, the Wolfpack will take the field without an experienced returner as we have now lost all three of our returners on the year to injury — TJ Graham, Rashard Smith & James Washington.
  • North Carolina’s Shrine Bowl roster will include NC State commitment Robert Crisp, but not Tony Creecy. WRAL has more information here.
  • The N&O says that the “Chuck Amato issue has faded for NC State”. That is fascinating to me. Chuck is actually an NC State graduate who has been a part of the family for over 40 years.  With this said, when will the media arbitrarily decide the Herb Sendek issue has faded for NC State?

This week in ACC Football (NCS @ FSU is discussed around the 2:20 mark of the video).

    Does this video require a Flash plugin or something else? On my Mac, neither Firefox nor Safari can find a plugin for this content. In the error message, I noticed there are double quotes around the plugin name:
    …has content of MIME type “”application/x-shockwave-flash””.

    And I definitely have Flash installed. I watch Flash videos every day.

    Interesting…video isn’t working for me, either.

    THANKS, WRAL for making life so easy for everyone!

    Looking at only stats versus ACC teams:

    FSU and State rank 11/12 in both total defense and scoring defense. State has a better rushing defense and FSU has a better passing defense vs ACC teams.

    And in a sign of great compassion from someone….Raycom has just faded to black on my TV

    NC State = the game when half the stadium bothers not to show up.

  6. CStanley 10/31/2009 at 11:58 AM #

    Over/Under on the number of guys we lose for the year after today’s game. I’m going with 2. And they will probably be true freshman who we can’t redshirt. And they will be talented. And it will probably be an injury that keeps them out of spring ball and likely delays any comeback at the start of next season.

    I’m very, very pessimistic right now.

    Broken femurs or ACL.

  8. Dogbreath 10/31/2009 at 12:04 PM #

    Where there goes our best lineman.

  9. Dr. BadgerPack 10/31/2009 at 12:04 PM #

    BJD- To answer your final question, the Sendek issue will fade this season, coinciding with ASU’s projected 5th-ish finish and NIT bid.

  10. CStanley 10/31/2009 at 12:05 PM #

    Well, there it is. There’s number 1. OL, Mattes. Gawd damn.

  11. Dogbreath 10/31/2009 at 12:09 PM #

    CStanley,

    You forgot the other common scenario: the guys who tear their ACL in week 8 who have already burned their redshirt year, and miss all of the following season during their extended rehab.

    If Donald Bowens can’t catch, he should switch to DB.

    And he CANNOT catch.

  13. Alpha Wolf 10/31/2009 at 12:10 PM #

    Mattes out for game.

  14. BassPacker 10/31/2009 at 12:11 PM #

    FSU might keep us in the game with penality help.

  15. Dr. BadgerPack 10/31/2009 at 12:15 PM #

    Our DB’s are much better at digs than the volleyball team… sucks they can’t catch…

  16. GAWolf 10/31/2009 at 12:17 PM #

    My son’s first State game. Appropriately, he’s sleeping and crying.

  17. Alpha Wolf 10/31/2009 at 12:18 PM #

    Is it me or has Eugene lost a lot his power?

  18. Pack Leader 10/31/2009 at 12:19 PM #

    Sack #1 at the 7:25 mark…. no doubt it wont be the last

  19. Alpha Wolf 10/31/2009 at 12:20 PM #

    Congrats on the baby GAWolf. That’s a lot better than well, anything.

  20. GAWolf 10/31/2009 at 12:20 PM #

    “try to pooch it.” comedy. that’s all he’s got.

  21. GAWolf 10/31/2009 at 12:22 PM #

    Thx. He’s awesome. Raises hell all night like his dad, though. Karma is a bad man.

  22. Dogbreath 10/31/2009 at 12:22 PM #

    Eugene has lost power, as has Cash. Our LBs are weak, and our DBs can’t tackle. Graham is slower than last year, now he’s blown out his knee.

    Our S&C program is phenomenal.

  23. GAWolf 10/31/2009 at 12:23 PM #

    another pick missed by morgan bc of faceguarding after being out of position.

  24. GAWolf 10/31/2009 at 12:26 PM #

    textbook pack. fumble recovery for huge gain. jebus.

  25. Pack Leader 10/31/2009 at 12:26 PM #

    WOW 20 yard run after an unforced untouched fumble… only w/ states tackling…
