Belk Bowl Drenching: Wolfpack vs Cowbells

Yes, I know Mississippi State’s mascot is the Bulldog.  Don’t care.

Those of you who will be in attendance, or anywhere in the Charlotte area really, get used to it.  And stock up on headache powders and ibuprofen.  You’ll need both.

The Wolfpack will go for win number eight today in what promises to be a very wet, and possibly lightning delayed affair.  Time will tell.

Game time is set for 3:30pm, TV is ESPN.

Gameday Central

For NC State, this game offers up an opportunity to match last year’s win total, while also adding a victory over a respected program from the highly-touted SEC.

“It would be a big statement, but at the same time we played a lot of top-25 teams,” Rose said. “UNC was a top-25 team, Louisville before the season was top-25, and Clemson is the number one team in the country. Those are three of our losses. We’ve played some good football and we’ve played some really good teams. At the end of the day, the SEC is the SEC. They’re considered the premiere conference, so a win against one of their better teams would be good for us.”

Wednesday’s contest will be a bowl rematch between two schools who faced off against each other in the 1994 Peach Bowl, a game that was won by NC State, 28-24. The two programs have scheduled home-and-home matchups for the future, with Mississippi State visiting Raleigh in 2020 and the Wolfpack making a return trip to Starkville the next year.

This will mark NC State’s 29th postseason bowl appearance. The Wolfpack owns an all-time bowl record of 15-12-1, but has prevailed in seven of its last 10 bowl outings.

The last time the Pack was in the Belk, this happened….

State went on to defeat the Cards 31-24.

Go Pack!!!!

    Terrible call = Ballgame.

    We needed the quick score to make it competitive. Got screwed instead. Typical…

    Nice drive by Jacoby. He’s hanging in there today.

    We need MissSt to return the gift we gave them on the 1st play from scrimmage. Then it’s anybody’s ballgame.

    I’m still hanging on to the hope of covering the 6 point spread. We ain’t winning this one though.

    I’m still scratching my head on that call. Is that really the rule? If you had the 1st down before the penalty it stands? Don’t remember seeing that before.

    The penalty is enforced from the spot of the foul. That put the ball back to the 21.

    Cowbells are too good and we’uns just not good enough. Like Foose alluded earlier, it is a little column A, a little column B.

    Not that it matters in the slightest, but I agree w/ whomever posted that our uni’s are the suck. My preference would have been the all reds. Red & White of state you ass clowns.

    It’s the part about it being a first down I don;t understand

    I give Dan Mullen a lot of credit. We have the home crowd, and have made multiple runs at them. Each time, they’ve methodically put the boot right back on our throat. Good coach.

    Also, Gallaspy hasn’t had a single carry. He’s definitely transferring.

    I’m the exact same way. But if we’re going to lose, don’t lose in this garbage. Whatever though, we’re a subpar P5 team lead by a junior coach who has a lot to learn. WTNY so we can say WTNY.

    Holding onto a thread of hope the BBall team can make strides towards improvement.

    Plain ole outclassed in every aspect. Sadly, the Pack won’t be any better next year with that offensive coaching and selection of offensive plays.

    Not even in pads, so he’s definitely hurt or something is up.
