Cut the excuses, Mac. We lost to a better team.
FTS
Three damn plays away from being undefeated in conference. The stupid a$$ release guys not laying the boom on McLeod of Clempson coupled with 7 missed tackles to follow and then after flipping the field giving up ANOTHER 70 plus yard run from scrimmage.
Pardon the hell out of me but that is coaching up on side and down the other.
I’m not going to count the Finley pick since their QB threw one and State converted the points.
The final score should have been 31-24 PACK.
And yes, ND MAULED THEM.
McCallum
Montezuma, Oglethorpe, Vienna and Cordele yesterday.
Almost went to Andersonville to celebrate the death of yankee scum.
Adel and Camilla next week.

1) Don’t turn the ball over
2) Don’t give up anymore 70 yard runs
3) Don’t get beat on special teamsMauled at ND, losing to Clempson on mistakes/coaching so this one should be of interest.
McCallum
0-2 into that tough stretch I pointed out.
BC has had a week of rest. Expect lots of counters and traps, lots of zone isolation runs and plenty of wide misdirection.
Coaching will show through, no long explanations needed.
McCallum
Two weeks in a row screwed by the refs and the replay booth. This is a bunch of crap, swofford bowl II. Time he should be fired.
This is bullsh.it.
You play the game the way it is being called, adapt and adjust.
The big difference last night was:
punt return
85 yard run (2 weeks in a row of 50 yard plus runs, no damn safety in the middle on both)
Finley pick on our endAll totaled to equal 21 points. The refs had NOTHING to do with those plays. You control what you can control and move on. I saw a few questionable calls, the clip on the long pass play was very odd and trimmed 25-30 yards off the play. All subsequent calls, right or wrong, validated the notion that N.C. State was not allowed to win.
I do not buy it one bit. That thinking,for example, removes any blame for the two release men on the punt that FAILED ON THEIR DUTY to contain and/or MAKE THE TACKLE. They ran past McLeod, period. That is coaching and execution, period.
Honey Monks = Lexington BBQ

The McCallum Day
5:15am- SSS, leave Georgia for Raleigh.
6:20- pick up Clempson buddy in Westminster SC.
8:30- Cross into Old North State on I 85
10:00- two BBQ sandwiches at Honey Monks in Lexington
11:45- pull into RV lot
11:46-3:05- knock down beer, oysters, more BBQ and tell many dirty jokes
3:19- notice first pair of hooker leather boots on millennial co-eds at State
3:30-7:30- game was interesting. I thought Dapper Dave coached a decent game. Lost special teams and kicking game again. Punt return was the difference. I’m not sure about the calls but the clip call on the long pass play is unheard of historically. Very bad read on the long run. Push off by their wideout and a follow up interference call against State was another odd flag.
So the difference is: punt return, short field pick thrown by Finley and the 85 yard run. That is 21 easy points, good teams do not allow that.
7:45-leave Raleigh
9:26-Hit Honey Monks again for two more BBQ sandwiches. They close at 9:30.
11:30- coffee at truck stop at in SC. Lot lizard arguing about discount dounuts with store manager, FIGHT!!!
12:45- throw trash out at Clempson exit.
1:25- drop Clempson buddy off at his house.
1:47- piss off bridge into Talluah River on SC/GA line.
2:10- walk through door.
Hellva day and YES. I condone the throwing of bottles and trash at the referees at the end of the game.
McCallum
Hines, (just call me “Lug Nut”) will play. No word on Jones. This is a truncated parable, assisted with pictogram moral of story, Yogi.
…And yes, Mac. I felt all but Pratt played poorly behind the DL.I not sure why the safeties were completely gone on a couple of those long runs but they were grossly out of position. Was State caught flat footed thinking the front would stuff the run and force the pass?
Maybe ND schemes that well but nothing theyve done indicated the need to commit to anything more so than stopping the run. Again, I’m not sure what was being thought on the sidelines but a broken coverage to a tight end and two circus catches is no reason to give up 300 yards rushing because you can’t stop dives and counters.
McCallum
If the linebackers don’t read any better this week expect the same score.
Our up coming opponents will make note of the past weekend.
McCallum
They ran simple isolation running plays in the first half.
They ran a basic counter play with guard and tackle pulling in the 2nd half.
They exposed the linebackers and secondary.
Had two weeks to prepare for this.
McCallum
Looks like a good beating up front by their O line.
Linebackers needed to fill holes and they were largely silent.
Excellent coaching by ND to teach using off hand by pass defenders.
JSam not in mix at all.
ND about to hit one of those long passes.
McCallum
The damn DOT in Georgia has programmed the construction signs to say GO DAWGS!! st the end of an announcement.
How I loath thee.
McCallum
If we hadn’t been so busy whining about how we “crapped the bed” vs BC last year, we could have seen this coming.
I agree.
Losing to them last year had nothing to do with endless plays between the tackles.
McCallum
I turn down 1/4 M raises all the time just so I can hangout on this board.
Good ones come, good ones go and good leaders know how to find ‘em.

Feminism you say?

One long piece I read many years ago about the Vagina Monologues being “performed” at Norte Dame by the usual suspects.
I’d say Norte Dame is just like every university now EXCEPT when it comes to academics/sports and that turn can’t be too far away.
Media had fallen for the Irish again, pressure builds on them and expect a big crowd. They thought they’d suck this year and their bandwagon fans have jumped on.
