NC State vs. LA Tech Game Thread

'13 Football Dave Doeren300

Yay, kickoff is minutes away! Need a reason to be positive? TOB has left town. And Skip Holtz is coaching the other team.

I will see you in the comments for late August fun and hilarity. Nobody knows what to expect from either team, so enjoy the ride.

    I’m now a big fan of the jet sweep. 14-0 PACK

    Shazam!

    Hell, even the OL looks decent. I know it’s a shitty defense, but I am still uber impressed so far.

    YEAH!!!! love this up tempo style. Mixing up the plays and none of the old plodding along style from the past.

    Someone read Jay Bilas’ “Toughness” book.

    THIS is AWESOME….

    This would be a 3-0, or even a 3-3 game with TOB coaching. Everyone remember that.

    Age does suck, Rick. Though it beats the alternative (at least when football is making me happy, as at present).

    Villanove up 7 on BC LMAO.

    Skippy is especially easy to confuse, which makes for the perfect storm we are seeing.

    ^PPP… I prefer *not… if you don’t mind….

    Beej, you’d be easily confused too if you grew up listening to instructions from Lou the Lisp.

    Way to swarm and tackle

  13. BJD95 08/31/2013 at 12:50 PM #

    The most important thing now is making sure Mitchell doesn’t die against the Tiggers or Noles. As long as we make that happen, the rest of the season should be fun to watch, at least.

    Holy shite, look at us TACKLE!!!

  14. TLeo 08/31/2013 at 12:51 PM #

    Even the defense is more energized than before

  15. BJD95 08/31/2013 at 12:51 PM #

    PPF, I swear I can’t understand a word from that senile old bastard’s marble mouth other than “Notre Dame” – which he says an average of 8 times per minute.

    Skip is wondering what a jet schweep is.

  17. Wufpacker 08/31/2013 at 12:52 PM #

    I’m really liking this defense so far.

    QB questions aside, I think defense is where our fortunes will ultimately lie as far as how the season turns out. And I realize the competition level might not be the best test.

    But dang…those boys are where they’re supposed to be so far. That’s a beautiful thing to behold.

    Unlike last year, everybody looks like they’ve played football at some point in their lives prior to gameday.

  19. packpowerfan 08/31/2013 at 12:53 PM #

    3 and out?! FIRE DOEREN.

    I had to.

  20. 1.21 Jigawatts 08/31/2013 at 12:53 PM #

    You mean it doesn’t take 1-6 games to know the season has started?

  21. Rick 08/31/2013 at 12:53 PM #

    They got stopped

    Fire Doeran

  22. BJD95 08/31/2013 at 12:54 PM #

    Jeebus, we are even covering kicks well. I haven’t seen that in like 20+ years.

  23. packpowerfan 08/31/2013 at 12:55 PM #

    If only Noah was still around, you would be hearing it Rick.

  24. packpowerfan 08/31/2013 at 12:57 PM #

    Mitchell to the locker room.

  25. BJD95 08/31/2013 at 12:57 PM #

    Noah may be lurking, I know he posted earlier in the week. No word on what happened to buttPACKer, though.
