Perhaps that is a slight exaggeration, but it sure does feel like it. (Hell, it has been 2362 days since the last football post on SFN!) I cannot remember a season with more hype and expectation, and it’s all deserved. Sports Illustrated has the Pack projected as the AP Preseason #11 team in the nation. […]

Media Says: Face It, Archie’s Not Coming Back To State
As much as State fans will hate to hear it, all signs point to Archie Miller spurning NC State. Just a little while ago, Joe Giglio, a man who is as plugged in to NC State athletics as any outsider can be, posted this tweet: Immediately afterwards, Giglio was bombarded with […]
Your “Looks Like We Made It” Finale at Clemson Open Thread

Your “something something Thomas Jefferson something something” UVa Open Thread
There’s also a joke in there about forced carnal relations with one’s slaves, in spite of the “All Men Created Equal” stuff. Meh. – Hey, Didya See This????? Road win in ATL. Not bad. So what if we turned a 14 pt lead into a shot for them to win it at the end. Baby […]
2017 Baseball Home Opener
Austin Peay invades Raleigh this weekend. Don’t know much about ’em. Don’t plan on doing much research on ’em either. Thru four games in 2017, they’re 3-1 against lesser competition. Kinda like us, actually. But vs that lesser competition, they’ve hit the ball pretty hard thus far. Last yr they finished 2nd in the Ohio […]
Your “Where’s Gen. Wm Tecumseh Sherman When You Need Him?” at GT Open Thread
That was one damn ugly Yankee, no? He knew how to deal with Atlanta tho. Then 150 years later, the Falcons make him proud in SB LI. But I digress…. The ailing Pack (14-14, 3-12 ACC) heads to Atlanta tonight to face the Yellow Jackets of GT (16-11, 7-7 ACC). Instead of just playing out […]
Your “Closing Ranks” Notre Dame Open Thread
OK folks. It was leaked. It was confirmed. Change is coming, but not until after the season. Oh, and you can go ahead and plan on hearing this sort of stuff for the next several months at least (years if we whiff on the hire)…. So congrats, NC State fans. You got what you wanted. […]

Yes, it’s that time again folks. The time of year when we Wolven sort look to baseball to take the sting out of the fall and early winter. 2017 Baseball gets going tomorrow, Friday February 17th. The Pack9 kicks the season off on a nice 3 game road trip all the way out to Hawaii. […]
Your “Show of Hands…Who’s Still Here?” U*NC Game Thread
In spite of a boatload of distractions over the past several days (none of which I plan to talk about in this entry, because there are plenty of other places where those things are being discussed), the reeling Pack (14-12, 3-10 ACC) welcomes their non-rivals to the PNC tonight. Carolina (21-5, 9-3 ACC) is coming […]
