Here’s the press release – maybe one of our enterprising readers can post a translation in the comments below.
Refs Blatantly Steal Game From Clemson (Update: ACC “Handles Internally”)
SFN commentary: Just yesterday Duke Basketball Report took a shot at SFN for daring to discuss officiating in Duke games. LOL! and kiss our ass. January 26 Update: The ACC does acknowledge the mistake, but nonsensically, it appears no discipline is forthcoming. Quote from Clueless Clougherty: “At this point, as with most league officiating matters, […]
UVA Game Thread
This won’t be a full live blogging exercise, but I may muster up the energy to update with thoughts as the game progresses. Obviously, the Pack really needs this one to keep its slim NIT hopes alive. We still have a home game against horrible Wake Forest and a road game against horrible Miami. Apart […]
Championship Sunday Open Thread
I just had a profoundly sad realization – today will be the last day of real football gluttony for over 7 months. Yes, there’s still the Super Bowl, but that’s more of an event than red meat for the hard core fan. Plus, it’s only one game! With the NFL, one game a day is […]
Three Home ACC Games…
…three complete and unequivocal ass kickings. Today’s was probably the worst, because of the listlessness I saw at times. Also, our guys need to learn that you can play hard on D and still play smart. We seem to have two (equally lousy) settings – 1) Don’t even put your hands up; and 2) Bite […]
Ben McCauley Appreciation Thread
The blog was pretty full late last week, and we didn’t get a chance to highlight this excellent article on Big Ben from the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. Read it and get chills at the confirmation of the rumors we heard throughout the spring – McCauley was very close to transferring, which would have made an 0-16 […]
SFN in the Blogosphere
It’s always nice to be recognized by your peers, and StateFans Nation is proud to be nominated for three College Football Blogger Awards. We have been nominated for “Best ACC Blog,” “Best Community Interaction Award (see, you faithful readers and commenters do play a vital role here – fittingly, we found out about these nominations […]
We Could’ve Been a Contender…
A friend of mine passed along a link to this interesting site. If college football chose to crown it’s champ like boxing (really, is that any more ridiculous than the BCS “mythical national championship” or just freaking voting on it, like for homecoming queen?), NC State would have briefly held the title in 1999 (toggle […]
Clemson Positive Vibes Thread (Update: Atsur out)
I hope everybody can remember what happened the last time I started a thread like this. Well, I have the same vaguely positive feeling today. UPDATE: I feel much less optimistic after hearing (from a trusted source) that Atsur has re-injured his hamstring in practice and is out for tonight (and maybe more). Shit. Oh […]
UNC-G Tonight – Last Chance for “Bad Loss”
NC State’s 4th straight game on ESPN-Unavailable could mark an impressive milestone. If the Wolfpack wins tonight (the Spartans are 6-6 and rated in the 180s according to Sagarin), it will have navigated the 2006-07 basketball schedule without a single embarrasing loss, at least based on the caliber of opponent. Reviewing the Pack’s current non-conference […]
