Before moving onto semi-serious business, make sure you read Cardiff Giant’s interview with Tommy Hunt. Priceless stuff. No doubt most of you have read about Chuck Amato’s latest testy exchange with the media. And in all fairness, it does seem like there was a certain amount of “badgering” involved. Still, what in God’s name could […]
’06 Football
BC @ NC State Set for ESPN2 @ 8pm
This is a nice piece of scheduling. (Link) Although it would be a lot nicer if you were allowed to get to your parking spot before the 3:30pm games kickoff; which you can’t because of the tailgating policy.
Why Does Instant Reply Exist if it Isn’t Used?
Allow me to save you some time and go ahead and pre-empt some of your comments. Some of you will want to chime in with a testoserone-laden statement that, “you shouldn’t put yourself in that position”…or “never let it come down to the last play”. To be fair, I can’t disagree with you when you […]
Elevated (noah) Comments
You will have to forgive us for taking a day off after Saturday’s debacle. We just needed a break. To start off this Monday we are going to elevate some comments from Saturday’s blog entry that we thought were really good and deserved special attention. noah always delivers with accurate and astute insight.

Akron @ NC State
We’re going to use this entry as our game entry. For pre-game, we urge you to check out the following pieces: * Weekend #2 Television Schedule * What the hell is going on at the N&O? * Preparing for Akron * A Tip for Saturday * Rebate? 18.3 Plays Per Game Lost!
Week 2 – TV Schedule
This week can’t come soon enough. Granted, week two is a letdown from an opening weekend full of exciting games, but the marquise match-up from week two could easily be the best regular season game of 2006. I’ll be in Baton Rouge for the Tigers this week; so Penn State/Notre Dame and the end of […]
Poll – Week 2
As mentioned in the first poll, StateFansNation considers these early polls to be premature and for the most part meaningless, as not enough football has yet been played. Again, as a result, you can expect to see considerable changes in the poll from week to week. A couple of quick notes… Cal and Arkansas are […]
Preparing for Akron
We’ve been trying to get the gentleman at Section Six to consider coming over to StateFansNation. His stuff is just wonderful and fits EXACTLY what we do here. We shall not give up our quest!! 🙂 In the meantime, the work done at Section Six and Red & White from State continue to complement our […]
Tuesday Morning Football Bytes
Off to work, so I just wanted to get a few things up for your viewing pleasure: * The most important item of the entire weekend was the new 3-2-5-e rule supposedly designed to shorten games. I never got this to begin with. Who really cares about shortening games? Honestly. I pay all of that […]
Did You Really Think the Akron Line Would be -10.5?
First of all we don’t gamble, we look at the lines when they are released to get a feel of what Vegas thinks of an upcoming game. Personally, I thought that the line would be NC State-3. So I was suprised to see that NC State has opened as a 10.5 point favorite. For NC […]
