I live in VA and thought about going to this game until I realized realized where ODU was. Fuck the VA Beach area.

As for this game. ODU barely got by Norfolk State, which got hammered by Rutgers, which is a pretty shit Big 5 team. State should be in business although ODU will be the best offense we've seen so far.

IIRC we needed a home game last year and ODU did us a favor by giving us that game so we gave them a return game. Wake, UNC & VT will also be playing up there in the next few years, and State didn't really mind playing up there due to some getting some recruiting exposure in the region.

That game at South Alabama is the one I'm not okay with, some kind of left over contract from the Lee Fowler era.

We've got ODU next year too, we got 2 for 1.

I thought somebody told me our OOC was so bad because of LSU pulling out, but that looks like it doesn't have anything to do with this year right? That was supposed to be 2017?

Even though LSU wasn't going to be this year, I think it started a bit of a domino effect, and a 2 for 1 with ODU was a result. South Alabama is definitely from the Fowler era. If we hadn't bought out of it, we might have opened at Central Michigan this year.

I believe the staff is not upset about playing in the Hampton Roads area. Trying to make in roads with recruits up there and such. I mean, probably not ideal but more along the lines of Debbie, whoever does the schedule and Doeren having a convo like "Would you mind going up there? Not really..."

Now, the week after when we go down to Alabama...

I was very surprised we didnt buy out the South Alabama game, especially after we did buy out the Central Michigan road game; perhaps there was a belief that too many buyouts of return games would make it more difficult to schedule teams, particularly 2-for-1s, in the future.

At one point we were scheduled to host Oklahoma State this year (and go to their place next year). I think Troy actually ended up filling that slot. It was never made clear who cancelled it, but it was presumed to be OSU because of the Big "XII" going to 9 conference games. LSU was supposed to be 2018/2020.

No one talking about OD's stadium? It seats about as many as PNC.

But for real, they better not convert on 4th down like last year (5/6). That was bananas.

"The South Alabama trip Sept. 26 is a payoff of a two-for-one contract that was shrewdly set up by former South Alabama AD Joe Gottfried, the father of N.C. State men’s basketball coach Mark Gottfried.

N.C. State beat the Jaguars in Raleigh in 2011 (35-13) and ’12 (31-7)."



Going forward, Doeren pointed out that N.C. State will play Notre Dame (2016, ’17), East Carolina (’16, ’19, ’22), West Virginia (’18 and ’19) and Mississippi State (’20, ’21).

I won't get a chance to watch this guy but we better beat these clowns down. They're not a good team this year so last year is irrelevant. By looking at their stats their defense is garbage and Thornton, Samuels, and Dayes should have a field day with them.

I am wondering if the return of Shadrach will mess up the effectiveness of Dayes/Jaylen. Just worried if it will impact the offensive chemistry. Will be interesting to see how we use Shadrach. Hope we run a very high tempo attack subbing the two RBs and mixing in Jaylen.

Yeah, it sure is going to suck getting our best RB back.

We need him for when we play teams with actual defenses.

[Edited on September 16, 2015 at 10:48 AM. Reason : I don't think it will change anything with Samuels. Dayes will just play less.]

^ agreed. I think it will actually make Dayes more effective. IMO, the role he has been playing is less of his natural/best position than weve seen in the past. I do, however, wonder how DD is going to get Dayes, Samules, Shad busy and keep bringing Hines along. Clearly Nichols hasnt been getting much action even though he's been listed as the 2, so its not like there are extra snaps to give out. I anticipate our offense will stay vanilla until conference play, then he'll open up the playbook a little.

I think our offense will be fine. It was fine last year with all those players. I think the main thing you'll see is Dayes' workload reduced. Which is probably a good thing. You don't see many college RBs getting 25 carries every game for an entire year...so if we're able to keep Shad and Dayes both fresh, especially against tougher competition, that can only be a good thing IMO. Dayes is currently 8th in the nation in rush attempts. That's pretty high, and we've got the talent in the backfield to really spread the ball around and keep everybody's legs fresh. So you might see Dayes getting 10 carries instead of 25. And that'll be fine because there's not a drop off in talent. Samuels is sort of his own position...RB/FB/TE/WR hybrid and I don't think Shad will really cut into his workload at all.

I would imagine Nichols won't get many touches...he did fumble last week on his only carry. And Gallaspy might ease into the #3 RB role instead of Nichols.

Shad and Dayes are also different style backs. Dayes is more shifty while Shad is more of a power runner. THere's a place for both in the offense...especially if we're gonna run the ball 40+ times/game.

Yeah. Hines has only ran the ball in jet sweeps and I don't think has even lined up in the backfield yet. We're using him as a slot receiver.

I think Samuels still gets close to the same amount of touches - maybe slightly less in the red zone with Shadrach back though. Dayes will see less touches out of the back field, but might be a little more active in the passing game. Canada is going to have to be creative to get everyone touches, but he did a pretty great job of that last year.

Eh, still think we use Samuels the same, we haven't even see the full playbook, Canada worked exclusively on sets to feature Samuels this summer per the coaching staff. He's going to be a steady player for us all year.

Dayes will go down to 8-10 touches a game and Thornton will get the rest, similar to last year. Dayes doesn't need to take the beating of 15+ touches a game and works better as a change of pace anyways. I'm sure Shad will get some carries around the goal but I think Samuels and our TEs will continue to get featured in that area.

Still expect very vanilla play-calling this week.

The team is using the indoor facility all week to prepare for the game because ODU's field is Field Turf and to pipe in crowd noise.
