’13 Football
Into the Abyss: Winston-Salem, NC.
Look, it’s simply impossible to over-exaggerate just how much a House of Horrors Groves Stadium BB&T Field has been for N.C. State. Every odd year folks start throwing around the “no way we lose to Wake Forest this year.” But every odd year we go to the abyss called Winston-Salem and play impossibly dreadful, and […]
Syracuse @ State (and ACC) gametimes set
Kick-off for the Syracuse Orange’s visit to Carter-Finley Stadium on October 12th has been set for 3:30pm and will be televised by Fox Regional Sports Networks. This is the exact same time and television slotting the Wolfpack got for this weekend’s visit to Winston-Salem. Personally, I strongly prefer the 3:30 slot to noon games, particularly […]
NC State 48 Central Michigan 14
Pete Thomas threw his first touchdown pass as an NC State quarterback and the Wolfpack looked as sharp as anyone could hope in route to a 48-14 win over Central Michigan on a gorgeous fall afternoon in Carter-Finley Stadium. Coach Doeren’s staff clearly saw something in in the Chippewa defense that the Pack wanted to […]
Pack/Chippewas Game Thread
This is nowhere near interesting enough for a LiveBlog (CMU is the worst team we will face this year), but there may be lively discussion in the comments anyway. General football discussion will continue in the other thread. Wolfpackers in NC with cable can watch the ESPN3 feed on TWC channel 519.
NC State Football By The Numbers – Post Clemson Edition
Here are the football season stats and rankings after the Thursday night Clemson game. Team Statistics Offense Scoring Offense: 25.7 (ACC Rank: 10, Nat’l Rank: 81) Hi: 40 Low: 14 Rushing Yards: 196.7 (ACC Rank: 5, Nat’l Rank: 52) Passing Yards: 258.0 (7, 46) Total Offense: 454.7 (6, 51) Defense Scoring Defense: 20.3 (ACC Rank: […]
Tudor: ‘One of the worst officiating blunders in ACC history’
Caulton Tudor gave out grades after State’s loss to Clemson and Coach Doeren got a solid B. I don’t necessarily argue with that. It is hard to give an A when you lose by two touchdowns. I would’ve supported a B+ if we wouldn’t have had ANOTHER awful time management situation on offense near the […]
He was in.
The reasonable among us aren’t arguing that line judge Richard Misner’s blown call cost State the game — we knew we’d have to keep scoring to win that game. But it’s entirely fair to say it shifted the momentum of a tight, hard-fought game squarely into Clemson’s favor. This is all hypothetical, of course, but […]
Pack/Tiggers 2013 Football LiveBlog
As promised, here I be…for perhaps some fun and merriment. This year, the cartoon jingle (“oh the wonderful thing about Tiggers, is Tiggers are wonderful things”) is apt. Clemson is good, really good. I can say it out loud, because I won’t feel bad if I jinx them – I think 2013 Clemson is too […]
There Will Be LiveBlog Tonight
This is a perfect opportunity to bring back a sometimes loved, sometimes hated staple of SFN – the game night LiveBlog. It had been mostly on permanent hiatus due to superstitious factors (i.e., bad juju beyond our control), but with a rebuilding Wolfpack squad facing one of the three best teams in the country…there’s no […]
