If you’re a longsuffering NC State fan, you will never forget the dark days, and you will certainly long remember the national dogpile on the “delusional Wolfpack fans” for running the poor Herb Sendek (who never beat Roy Williams despite being favored in 4 out of his 6 games against him) out of town. Criminy, […]

Dave Glenn – McCauley 2nd Team All-ACC
Well, at least based on the ACC season to-date. Here’s your link. I have trouble arguing against any of his selections, except that I would probably list VT’s Gordon higher. His first-team, COY, and POY selections are all exactly right. Many of you will likely be agitated about Glenn listing Costner 2nd to Wright for […]
A Vitale Called Game
A tip of the hat to someone on Pack Pride’s message board, but they didn’t give proper credit for the find when they said, “I saw this somewhere else”. (That’s a lot more than some of the SFN generated stuff that ends up on the message boards without any acknowledgement that it was first seen […]
Vote for SFN! College Football Blogger Awards
A few days ago we told you about StateFansNation being nominated for several of RockyTopTalk‘s College Football Blogger Awards. Well, the folks at RTT were kind enough to send us buttons to allow our readers easy access to voting. Here they are:
Should editors make these comments?
Check this out Is this a joke? or am I off base? But…isn’t it a combination of odd, inappropriate, stupid, and ridiculous for a SPORTS EDITOR to pen a quasi-article that proclaims, “I don’t particularly care for (the largest public university in the state in which I cover sports”)? Seriously. Tell me if I am […]
Checking in on the RPI, ACC, and Pac 10
A quick peak at what is going on in the ACC and partiuclarly a nice piece on the conference and the RPI. The Atlantic Coast Conference currently has EIGHT TEAMS (66% of the conference) ranked amongst the nation’s Top 38 in the RPI. Interestingly, the league’s two hottest teams are currently the ACC’s two lowest […]
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 […]
GoPack Tries to Pull A Fast One
Check out the picture of the Pack celebrating from today’s game. Oh wait. That picture in today’s article has the Pack celebrating on the sidelines while wearing white uniforms. You know, the uniforms that State wears when playing home games. As you know…State played in Winston-Salem and wore red today. Classic! Gotta love the consistent […]
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 […]
Another Tarheel Announcer Deserving Criticism
We’ve already ripped on Woody Durham last week…so why not another one? A lot of people don’t seem to know that irritating Jim Lampley (Bio) is a ‘one of them’. Evidently he is cut from King Rice mold as he has been arrested for domestic violence charges. Deadspin is all over this one. HBO boxing […]
