    I jumped in on the point-spread thread too soon. Here’s how the various stats match-up between State and WF:

    Strikes me as two evenly matched teams based on stats. I have not looked at schedules or the like.

    In reality, Va’s welcomed take is dead nuts on.
    The journey this team has taken has been too fast to grasp.

    Y’all don’t give a s”it, do ya?

    Crappy Basketball in November. Are you serious?

    It’s like not talking about the elephant in the room… I just hope State can come out with a plan and the fire to win. Go Pack!

    Forecast is 20-25 mph winds with chance of rain at game time. After seeing how we play under less than chamber of commerce type weather at BC, this game worries me more now. If at Carter, maybe conditions not as much an issue for Finley. Wake running game is way under rated, they proved that with ND. And being Senior night at Wake and them playing for a bigger bowl perhaps than us with a win, this could get ugly quick. It could come down to fg goal kicking, and we know how that will be…. And PLEASE, no wild cat !! Either way, I’ll have plenty of beer and the grill red hot by game time. GO Pack !

    Senior day didn’t help BC and I doubt it will help WF. More likely a distraction. Likewise playing for a bigger bowl. It’s like golf. The bigger the putt, the less help that is. Focusing on the task at hand is what makes a difference.

    They gotta guard us too.

    Not to be argumentative, but Weather Underground says high 50s, winds at 11-12mph and 40% chance of rain ~11:00

    I just checked the forecast. Rain probably after midnight but yes high wind. Same forecast as at home (a few miles to the NW). I agree the wildcat used in the amount used the last few games is probably not a good idea.

    I think J Sam is a mudder. Feed the man.

    I’ll be in Neyland, in the rain, surrounded my LSU corn dogs, while the locals spread grumors. Isn’t Canada coaching crawdads? Vols V formation.

    I’ve been to the last 4 State/Wake games. This feels like it could be a classic. To the beer garden.

    The high wind is here but I doubt we see any rain during the game.

    I’d love to see some stats to back up this claim. That a team would be more at a disadvantage playing on their senior day sounds nothing short of outrageous to me.

    In fact, it really sounds like something you completely fabricated.

    You’ll find days that teams don’t win on their senior day. I can also point to a few days in October of 2008 when the stock market went up. That doesn’t mean you made money in October of 2008 though.

    And so much whatever that you felt the need to post about it! Any more departure from reality gems you’d like to bestow? How about playing this game on the road is actually to our advantage? Is it akin to bowling close to your house and never being able to bowl that 300?

    Line moved all the way to significant WF -3 with 60% public on NC State. Typically does not bode well.

    ^Why is that Troll? No, I won’t ask for data to support your belief, but just truly curious why you believe that. To me, that is just bookmakers reacting to the betting.

    Watching the game from Smith Mountain Lake. No access so an hdmi cord from laptop to tv will save the day. Yay internet!

    It’s called reverse line movement. You can google the term to understand it’s significance.
