On today’s ESPN Gameday, Lee Corso chose FSU quarterback, Drew Weatherford as his Pontiac game changing performer of the day. He said, “This game is closer than the experts think; Florida State wins in a fourth quarter rally.” For more on today’s match-up between NC State and Florida State: The Wolfpacker’s Keys to the Game […]
Sound Familiar?
The more I research and learn about other college football programs, the more I realize that maybe NC State fans aren’t the only ones that are so bad? Maybe we aren’t the only ones who want to win? A couple of weeks ago, I was ‘shocked’ to witness Ohio State fans in the Horseshoe boo […]
Bad State fans lead CFBall Attendance (again)
Fansblog continues to earn their keep with the type of information that we all love. On Tuesday, they shared an analysis based on accumulated percentage of stadium capacity for their entry, “Which college football fans are going, or not going to games this season?” Essentially – how much, in percentage points, are fans filling up […]
Pirates: SI’s “Ugliest Uniforms”
Just because East Carolina has lost two in a row after their “big” wins over powerhouses Rice and SMU doesn’t mean that the Pirates have fallen out of the consciousness of the rest of the world. I don’t care what Eric Hyman or the rest of the country thinks…the Pirates still demand attention out there!!! […]
Hodge Forgets NCSpin & Fails to Make Opening Roster
Maybe we should cool the talk about Julius Hodge becoming Herb Sendek’s first player (to leave the NC State program on good terms) to play in the National Basketball Association until it actually happens. Although it is sure to happen at some point, the rookie drafted twentieth overall by the Denver Nuggets has failed to […]
There is life after Hodge, but is there life after Hunter?
The Sporting News‘ Mike DeCourcy submitted an entry in his blog on Thursday that focused on the NC State Basketball program that was quite optimistic about the Wolfpack’s season despite the loss of Julius Hodge. After touting Hodge’s impact in Raleigh, DeCourcy focused on the Wolfpack’s depth of talent and versatility, highlighting Andrew Brackman and […]
Quinton Porter Bites
I’ve been watching the Boston College @ Virginia Tech game tonight with absolutely no bias. I have no preference or overwhelming affinity for either team. So, while watching the game, I have tried to put myself in the shoes of both teams. It has been an interesting experience. As a VPI fan, I found that […]
ESPN’s Fowler: Hook ‘Em
I’m a big fan of suggesting that you take some time to “blog surf” at places like Fansblog.com from time to time. Additionally, you can check out our list of links on the right side of StatefanNation; we work hard to keep these links fresh and updated for your convenience. Every now and then we […]
Jay Davis = Class Act
I’ve been a little neglectful with getting things linked up on the blog this week, but didn’t want to pass on something that needed to be said. If you didn’t get a chance to see or hear how dignified Jay Davis dealt with his demotion to back-up status behind Marcus Stone on the NC State […]
State Basketball Tickets for Sale
With NC State’s (10th consecutive) sub-par home out of conference basketball schedule, it is no surprise that people who don’t own Lifetime Rights have not lined up to buy the available basketball tickets that remain for the 2005-2006 basketball season in the RBC Center. Maybe “Coach Fowler” can release a letter to everyone to encourage […]
