Inhale the Dumpster Fire Fumes – State/Duke Game Thread

What can one say about this season, and today’s matchup. A home win would give the Blue Devils bragging rights until 2020.

    Guys, DD is in over his head. We hired a baby by coaching standards, he’s only 41. He makes his coaching decisions based out of emotion. Like he’s playing Madden. Even with decent players that coaching style will be devastating.

    Hope he grows as a coach, but it sucks we have to wait on it.

    Can’t watch or get on radio… what is the score (or do I wanna know?)

    “It reeks of desperation”

    No shit Sherlock. Have you not seen us this year?

    Someone should tell the color man that desperation is all we have left to cling to.

    And cling to it we shall. Damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead!!!!! Next time, just to make up for it, punt on 2nd down and catch those bastards off guard.

    It’s not on the staff. It’s horrible QB play. That’s it. The decision should have resulted in a first down.

  6. Wulfpack 11/09/2013 at 4:59 PM #

    The point is there is no need to be desperate now. That three is on DD.

    These f- – kers are 6 – 2.

    Just came back to the tv. I agree gray wolf, that is not smart coaching. Trying not to crucify DD just yet, but damn.

  9. Adventuroo 11/09/2013 at 4:59 PM #

    Why did the QB run BACK 5 yards to hand it off to Shad? The DL and LB were all over that….

    This is getting UGLY…..and compared to how we have played before, that is really bad.

    I still have hope for DD, but I think that the team is in need of a pep talk and refocusing that even Jimmy V could not muster up…..

    At least it is NOT 14 and 0…..and it is only 10 and 0….

  10. BJD95 11/09/2013 at 4:59 PM #

    I believe in going for it. But when you have a shit OL, you can’t call timeout to telegraph the call, then run up the middle. Quick snap to a QB sneak? Sure.

  11. Wulfpack 11/09/2013 at 5:00 PM #

    No that is on the staff. No question. Horrible call. You don’t make that call then and there.

  12. inhoc... 11/09/2013 at 5:00 PM #

    When the team is one dimensional, and you line up like that, everyone knows what’s coming. That’s was a horrible play call but not a bad decision.

    ^wuf…

    I’m with you…

    after twenty minutes…. both teams are playing more or less equally… and we are down by 7.

    Kick the sh&t out of the ball and flip the field.
    No other choice.

    Oh well.

  14. Fastback68 11/09/2013 at 5:01 PM #

    If we are going to play crazy ball, then let’s turn it up 40 more notches.

  15. inhoc... 11/09/2013 at 5:01 PM #

    It’s f-ing duke for god sake. The only team state has a talent gap over. 4th and 1 should be an any time and place type of call.

  16. Wulfpack 11/09/2013 at 5:01 PM #

    It is a 7 point game. You are in it. It is the second quarter. There is just no need for that call then and there. No need at all. Punt it and play D. Now we are down 10 and that is on the staff.

  17. Wufpacker 11/09/2013 at 5:02 PM #

    The DL and LB were all over that….

    That’s kinda the whole point. Going straight up the gut with our OL and when that’s what they’re expecting, shows a definite lack of creativity.

    If you need cheering up and get the Military Channel, America’s Doomsday Plan is on.w

  19. Wufpacker 11/09/2013 at 5:03 PM #

    LOL Va…a little light viewing compared to this travesty.

  20. BamaPack 11/09/2013 at 5:03 PM #

    Like the poster said previously, our staff calls plays and makes decisions based on emotion not based on time, score, or logic.

    It’s like the SLE on turf. That is concerning.

  21. TheAliasTroll 11/09/2013 at 5:03 PM #

    In that situation, down 7 in the 2nd quarter on your own 20, you absolutely NEVER go for it. That call is indefensible. Even if we scored an 80 yard TD it would have been a HORRIBLE call.

  22. inhoc... 11/09/2013 at 5:03 PM #

    The teams aren’t playing equally. Duke sucks. State has no QB to move the ball.

  23. ncsunut 11/09/2013 at 5:04 PM #

    U have got to be kidding me! Did he learn nothing from last week? Unbelievable! 4th and 2″ and we hand off from 3 yds deep? WTH? If you’re going to gamble at least come up with a creative play! Why was Mitchell not in? Idiotic! As my dad says, you can’t fix stupid!

  24. BJD95 11/09/2013 at 5:04 PM #

    Duke is easily more talented than us.

  25. Wufpacker 11/09/2013 at 5:05 PM #

    That would have been pretty….if the field was 5 yards wider.
