Lots of stuff going on worth discussing. Philip Rivers finishes the season as the NFL’s most prolific passer with more than 4,700 yards.

Tracy Smith
Will Tracy Smith help the Wolfpack’s scoring droughts?
Last week we discussed how much the Wolfpack is ‘Missing Tracy Smith’. Today, the N&O gave us an update on the Pack’s wait for Tracy’s return. Still, Smith has yet to return, though coaches thought he may have played limited minutes on Thursday. Smith practiced with the team earlier in the week, but soreness in […]
Missing Tracy Smith
I’ve been very proud of NC State fans for not excessively harping on Tracy Smith’s absence due to a knee injury the last few weeks. It is a testament to our fans as well as to the program because I think an inherent feeling from most is that the program has enough talent to absorb […]

Yesterday, Sporting News’ Mike DeCourcy chimed in with some thoughts about the league’s policy. The key descriptive term here is — ‘absurd’.

Tracy Smith Suspended for Arizona Game (Updated at 2:15pm)
Jesus. Right before one of our ‘defining’ games for the season. Obviously, Smith should have just called the refs a bunch of GD MutherF’ers right on the court during the game so that he could be afforded the same flexibility that Coach K and Gary Williams receive on a nightly basis.
