Congratulations to the ACC’s second best team (Georgia Tech) who took down the SEC’s second best team 49-34 after allowing an inconsequential score to make the game look closer than it was. Despite Georgia Tech’s strong performance yesterday, the ACC’s record for points in a bowl remains NC State’s with 56 vs. Kansas in the […]
We won’t take the time to reset the entire bowl process here since we have touched on it in past entries, but over the last few days we have become more and more hopeful/expectant that the NC State Wolfpack would fall into the ACC’s slot in the Belk Bowl in Charlotte on December 30th. It […]
8:05pm Update If this website is correct and an 8-4 (5-3 in ACC) Virginia team that NC State handily beat in Charlottesville this year ends up in the Chick-fil-A Bowl….then it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to realize that the turd laid by the Wolfpack’s against Boston College ended up costing 7-5 (4-4) NC State […]
It’s official. This will be the third time the Wolfpack and Mountaineers have faced each other in a postseason bowl game. On Dec. 29, 1972, at the end of Lou Holtz’s first season at NC State, the Wolfpack throttled the Mountaineers, 49-12, for the biggest postseason margin of victory in school history. On Dec. 31, […]
This is a busy time of year in college athletics as teams prepare for bowl season, basketball hits high gear, recruiting in all sports heats up, and college football coaches jump on and off the coaching carousel at an accelerated pace and ultimately change the fortunes of programs for years to come. Please remember that […]
FINALLY!! I Saturday of football passed without NC State losing a game and without one of our opponents winning ACC Player of the Week honors! Great work by Mike Archer for holding the Idle Byes to a big goose egg on the scoreboard. Speaking of the conference, we’ve got some really interesting items for you… […]
October 8th New announcement today that the Emerald Bowl has been replaced by the Independence Bowl in the ACC’s bowl priority. The N&O has more. The conference’s affiliation with the Emerald Bowl in San Francisco will be replaced by a new deal with the Independence Bowl in Shreveport, La. The ACC parted ways with the […]
More changes may be afoot for the ACC’s bowl imprint. Sun Bowl and CBS officials will decide today whether to retain an association with the Big East or switch to the Atlantic Coast Conference. The opponent would remain a team from the Pacific 10. If it happens, this would add another New Year’s Day decent […]
Update 1: Instead of making a new entry, I’ll add this bit here: Tom O’Brien said today that starting safety Clem Johnson will indeed be ready to play tomorrow in the Pizza Bowl. This is a positive for the Pack as it adds depth to a defensive secondary that’s sure to be tested all day […]
We’ve got some solid football items to digest today. Heather Dinich has ranked the ACC Bowl games in order of most entertaining. The Wolfpack vs the Scarlet Knights is a strong second on the list. It’s interesting a bowl that is not an official ACC Bowl and includes the ACC’s 10th team is ranked so […]
