I am getting great pleasure from watching Rutgers get shitcanned by a pedestrian Cincinnati squad. At least I won’t have to hear any more nonsense about how they did what they had to under the current rules and “deserve” a shot at Ohio State, which would kick them into next week. I mean, they barely […]
’06 Football
Breakfast With Oblinger
Hopefully, a voice mail is being left in the NC State football office right now – “Hey, Chuck, this is Jim Oblinger. It’s been awhile since we got together – could you meet me for breakfast on Monday? Oh yeah, please ask Lee if he can join us, too.” There is no reason to even […]
So, today’s our annual Rival Game
How many of us longsuffering Wolfpack fans feel like this on rivalry game days lately? Is there any question why? It’s not just because of our last two losses in football to two terrible Tar Heel teams (team that we should have whipped like everyone else did). It’s also because of the previous basketball coach’s […]
Triangle Race To Futility
As the football season mercifully winds down, all 3 Triangle football programs are racing towards their place in school history – futility wise, that is. Since Duke, UNC and NC State all play at least one game against each other in the next 2 weeks (and for Duke and UNC, 2 games), someone is going […]
Week 12 TV Schedule
It would be easy to say only one game matters this weekend, but that would be oversimplifying things. This week’s schedule has a number of quality games. The obvious: The winner of the OSU/Michigan game will play for the national title. Both teams have done what it takes. They’ve rumbled through their conferences, and they […]
Talking the Talk: Amato Should Resign with Loss to UNC
Does it feel particularly quiet for the week of State-Carolina? It definitely feels quiet to us. The N&O’s ACCNow Blog has a quick item about the game today in “Talking the Talk”. How else do you explain two straight losses to UNC? Would you argue that UNC has been a better team than N.C. State? […]
Sad Stats
Numerous times over the last few weeks SFN has highlighted some of the sad stats that underscore just how bad NC State’s offense has been since Marc Trestman arrived in Raleigh last year. (Link to Trestman x3) Most of these stats have been a consolidation of results of (almost) two years of performance and resemble […]
What Happened, Chuck? (Updated 11/12)
State is close again but Clemson knocks the Wolfpack out of any of Chuck Amato’s ridiculous bowl dreams (ahhh, Boise in December) and the losing streak continues. That is now FIVE IN A ROW with the opportunity to drop two more to our most heated rivals – UNC-CH and East Carolina. (Link to Sunday morning’s […]

Football vs Clemson
VaWolf has already posted a fantastic preview for the Wolfpack’s vist to Death Valley this weekend.
