* There is no more joking “is it basketball season yet”. It really is basketball season for the Wolfpack. * In 2001, Maryland threw oranges on the field at the end of the game at Carter-Finley. Today, they threw statues of Mother Teresa, Gandhi and Bono on the field to celebrate their bid to the […]

O’Brien Wants A New Field at Carter-Finley
Looks like Coach O’Brien has fallen victim to the NC State ‘half-assed-renovation-plan’ at Carter-Finley. Whatever happened to all of the new bathrooms that were supposed to built? Whatever happened to the new entrance gates that were supposed to be built? Hell, you’d think that we would at least have enough gates to get our poor […]

Calling All Wolfpack Marines
As a commenter pointed out to us last offseason, Tom O’Brien’s first rivalry game with UNC just happens to fall on the Marine Corps’ “birthday.” You will also remember that at the most recent athletics’ banquet, Coach O’Brien pledged that the football team would stand next year as a unit that beat Carolina. Given the […]
Putting the Blame Where It Lies
Harsh, but spot-on. The source is really surprising, but apparently nobody in the Triangle market had the stones to call it like it is. One simply indisputable fact about N.C. State football became obvious this week. After spending the team’s bye week giving the third team (mainly expected-redshirt freshman, low-value scholarship athletes and walk-ons) as […]
NC State Cracks The Bottom 10
NC State has finally made ESPN’s Bottom 10. Surprised it took so long.
Wolfpack Mistakes Wearing On O’Brien
N.C. State coach Tom O’Brien is beginning to show the strain. O’Brien came off tired, disappointed, irritated and — for the first time this season — a bit dispirited Saturday. The Wolfpack had lost to Florida State 27-10. Tailback Andre Brown had suffered a broken foot and was lost for the year. The Wolfpack (1-5, […]
TOB Obsession Continues @ BC
Link For Boston College’s sake…I sure hope that the Eagles are competing for National Championships while dominating the Wolfpack in years 2009, 2010 and 2011. If not, they are going to have a hard time explaining how their program would be lower than it is today and how State’s would be higher. I’m just sayin’….
Louisville Pre-Game Pessimistic Thoughts
OK, I had a bad feeling last week – and the actual game met those low expectations. Today, I perhaps feel a little bit worse, as the Pack squares off against an even better offense, and a highly pissed opponent. Let’s look at ESPN.com’s preview, shall we? Louisville ranks 1st in offense (626.8 ypg), while […]
