But, this morning we ran across a few items that deserve front page billing. […]

Future Opponent Insight: Life on the margins
Already having a great conversation regarding this weekend’s visit to Wake Forest on this entry on the blog and in this thread on the message boards. Additionally, we thought that you would like find some value in this entry from the great Dr. Saturday. His work looks at the weekend of three of the Wolfpack’s […]
Pack Must Play Better To Win On The Road Against Wake
Don’t be fooled into believing that NC State will wolf down a cupcake against a poor team on Saturday in Winston-Salem. Tom O’Brien certainly isn’t, and Pack fans would be wise to believe their coach: State’s upcoming road and conference opener will be anything but an easy win for the favored Red and White. Despite […]
Pitt provides pivot point for Pack program (Updated 10am)
Make no mistake about it…today’s Wolfpack win over the favorite to win the Big East Championship marked a legitimate turning point for Coach Tom O’Brien and the NC State football program. We posted this previous comment as the game ended, so we were very pleased to see that we were on the same page with […]
Comprehensive (But Scattered) Thoughts on the Pitt Game
When I think about today’s game, I recall the first glimpse of light at the end of the tunnel. I had been going to NC State football games my whole life (in fact, one of my earliest memories is of the eerie silence settling over C-F when Penn State beat us on a last second […]
Pitt beat writer says NC State crowd won’t be a factor
Finally, the game is almost here. Paul Zeise is the Pitt beat writer for the Post-Gazette and recently did a chat about this week’s Pitt/NC State matchup. Here are his comments about the impact of crowds at Carter Finley stadium: Well I suppose Bob Smizik might have been there for that game (the 1988 Pitt […]
Vermiglio, Johnson, and Eugene cleared to play
Good news on the injury front. Also, note safety Javon Walker listed as out. I expect he will be ready to play soon as well. NC State has released an updated injury report for the upcoming game against Pittsburgh. Tailback Jamelle Eugene, safety Clem Johnson, and left tackle Jake Vermiglio are no longer listed on […]

Big injury update and afternoon football bytes
WRAL: Eugene & Vermiglio not on current two-deep WRAL is reporting that neither Jamelle Eugene nor Jake Vermiglio were ‘listed on the N.C. State depth chart for the Pittsburgh game, which was released by the school Monday afternoon.’ I’m not going to lose any sleep over this yet as: (1) I haven’t seen this two-deep […]
Russell Wilson breaks NCAA record in another Wolfpack offensive explosion
Russell Wilson has now attempted 329 consecutive passes without throwing an interception breating the record of 325 previously held by Kentucky’s Andre Woodson. I’d say it was a good move by Coach O’Brien to get ther record done this week so that the Wolfpack’s exclusive focus can be on Pitt this week.  Speaking of […]
