After Alabama’s dominating win over LSU Monday night, college football withdrawal had already begun. Thus, I began reading Mark Schlabach’s Way Too Early Top 25 for the 2012 season. As I finished the Top 15 without seeing Clemson, I started hoping to see NC State somewhere. Lo and behold: 24. NC State Wolfpack: After a […]
SFN Bids Everett Withers a Fond Adieu
It would be hard to write a more fitting denounement – a half-hearted effort leads to the Holes getting taken behind the woodshed for some sweet, sweet Shreveport schadenfreude. A garbage time TD cut the final margin to 41-24 – but it was never in doubt after the first quarter. Missouri is hardly a football […]
A Wolfpack/Cardinal(s) Sunday
Hey, look at the symmetry! On this same splendid Fall Sunday, the Wolfpack has a great “house money” basketball game at the Stanford Cardinal, and will almost certainly be invited to play football against the Louisville Cardinals in Charlotte’s Belk Bowl. Let us hope that a good showing against the singular serves as a precursor […]
Where and When?
Please take heed – this is not a thread to bitch and moan about TOB coming back, or to bitch and moan about how most of us turned away in disgust at some point yesterday afternoon. Nay, tis a thread for Wolfpackers to share their stories of when and where they learned that NC State […]
Vengeance is Mine, Sayeth the Pack (Open Game Thread) UPDATE: 13-0 NCSU SHUTS UNC OUT!
I am probably too focused and irritable to live blog, but I will add comments via my blackberry. For those of us not in the stadium, let us commune together. Quite frankly, I wouldn’t have gone to the game with a free ticket on the 50-yard line. I need to be right where I […]
F**k You, Everett Withers
What more infuriating way to wake up than this: “When you have as many schools in this state as we have, and the recruiting base gets watered down a bit, I think the kids in this state need to know the flagship school in this state,” Withers said. “They need to know it academically. If […]
Pack/Noles Game Thread
My only hope for this game is that nobody else gets hurt. Beating the Holes next week is pretty much the only remaining goal for the season. Plus I know my sports-related good fortune was all used up during Games 6 and 7 of the World Series. See you sporadically in the comments, I will […]
Pack/Wahoos Open Thread
Today is the first of the Pack’s three remaining realistic shots (along with BC and the Holes) to win an ACC game. TOB would be advised to win all three if he wants to retire next year instead of next month. More importantly, a loss today would effectively end the season. See you kids this […]
Pack/Bees Open Game Thread
In order to put a positive face on things, I will attempt to list some positive things about this football season: – Based on our September play, beating the spread will be a much more realistic goal going forward. – Boston College sucks as bad as we do, if not worse. – Butch Davis still […]
Rejoice! For There Shall Be Liveblogging
Can I get an “amen, hallelujah” brothers and sisters? I know I have been disinterested, out of town, and/or lazy for the first three weeks of the season. Which is probably for the best. But tonight, the live blog…she is back. Will the Pack lose 52-49 in a thrilling shootout? Or 63-14 in a…less interesting […]
