ECTC Open Game Thread

I may live blog just a little bit, but my daughter has a soccer game at 1:00. Have at it in the comments.

4:45pm Update: Evidently, this thread was below the fold all day and wasn’t sent the top as it should have been. So, only our more rabid readers found it. Our meltdown is happening both in our comments section of this entry as well as in this conversation on our message forums.

More later, if we can stomach it.

    I feel awful even saying it…but isn’t this the third game this year where we’ve been bewildered by RW making bad decisions and/or playing poorly? UCF, VT, now ECU.

    I’ll say it – he has not been himself all year really.

    Not good, but not terrible clock management… gotta consider leaving too much time if don’t get first down. We were trying to take time off in case ECU got the ball, while leaving just enough time for us.

    We did it poorly. We did lots of things poorly today.

    Eek out the win. Move on. Do NOT blow this overtime!

    Russell has played poorly, by his standards. Comparatively speaking, he’s a victim of his own success.

    Good Lord, do we ever suck. This will be a very well-earned loss for us.

    That was too easy.

    There’s our window.

  7. wufpup76 10/16/2010 at 3:43 PM #

    He missed!

    Come on offense!

  8. wufpup76 10/16/2010 at 3:44 PM #

    Hmmm … maybe we should run the ball.

  9. wufpup76 10/16/2010 at 3:45 PM #

    And now we’ll completely abandon it for the next three plays.

    Stop the celebrating. Just score

  11. RonTrout 10/16/2010 at 3:47 PM #

    What a waste.

    On Wilson, obrien and bible.

  13. wufpup76 10/16/2010 at 3:48 PM #

    Gah.

  14. BJD95 10/16/2010 at 3:48 PM #

    Like I said, a well earned loss, and Russell Wilson is completely the goat. Made terrible throws and even worse reads all day long. But the entire team and coaching staff should be ashamed to show their faces on campus this week. Pitiful effort all around.

    I no longer care about this season. Way to blow a should win game. 6-6 here we come

  16. tjfoose1 10/16/2010 at 3:50 PM #

    Easy to explain this game… ECU played harder, wanted it more. NC State was outplayed and out coached. ECU deserved to win.

    We reverted to old ways in performance, and that trash BS celebrating between plays. Play hard, celebrate AFTER you win.

    Garbage.

    Don’t jump off of the bridge yet.

  18. Statefan1998 10/16/2010 at 3:51 PM #

    Life as a State fan. Ww are cursed and will always be losers.

  19. OldWuf 10/16/2010 at 3:52 PM #

    Well, Damn! It was great while it lasted, back to reality. I guess we made their season, at least they won’t burn Raleigh down.

  20. RonTrout 10/16/2010 at 3:52 PM #

    I’m fully confident that we’ll come back in 2 weeks and beat FSU, b/c they’ll actually care about that game. They thought they’d show up and win today and got beat by a team that wanted it more and showed heart. We’re lucky to get to overtime considering the way they tried to hand it to us, but we can’t stand success and would not take it from them.

    fire TOB

  22. BJD95 10/16/2010 at 3:56 PM #

    At no point today did we look like a good, or even decent football team. Very fortunate we play in the ACC, in its worst year in the post-expansion era.

    Oh well, on to Auburn vs. Arkansas. You know, real, well-played football. Enough shitstorm for me today, thanks.

  23. papackman 10/16/2010 at 3:56 PM #

    the game was lost with 3rd and 2 and the stupid fkin coaches didn’t call timeout to avoid a 5 yard penality….fire TOB

  24. BJD95 10/16/2010 at 3:59 PM #

    And it’s totally time to worry in earnest about Wilson. He is regressing, and regressing badly this season.

  25. wolfpack821 10/16/2010 at 4:01 PM #

    Had a bad feeling about this game all week long. This was ECU’s superbowl. They would gladly sacrafice all their wins to beat State and feel like they are equal to an ACC team.

    ECU wanted it more, end of story. Glad that we have a buy week to work on LOTS of mistakes and kinks.
