Good teams are going to DESTROY us, but this is fun

9/26/2015 8:56:46 PM

Jalen Samuels is a sick motherfucker...holy shit

9/26/2015 8:57:00 PM

Why are we playing there? wouldn't it have been more profitable for both schools to play here and give them a fee?

9/26/2015 8:57:17 PM

^ It's Gott's fault, actually.

Fire him for making us play in South Alabama.

9/26/2015 8:58:25 PM

I remember this being a Jed Clampett deal which is how we got suckered into a home (or maybe two homes) and away

9/26/2015 8:58:26 PM

That play was beautiful.

Did you miss us playing them twice at home?

9/26/2015 8:58:59 PM

I'm talking about THIS game. I don't care how many times we played them, we should never subject our team to playing in a high school stadium.

9/26/2015 9:00:12 PM

It was a 2-for-1 deal. I want to say Fowler and/or TOB was doing a favor for someone at SA and that's why it was structured that way.

9/26/2015 9:00:38 PM

it was actually a pretty smart deal by fowler (a rare one) because there was pretty much zero shot either he or the coach he hired would be around for this game

let's just hope yow doesnt schedule a 2 for 1 with UTSA with the game in san antonio scheduled for 2025

9/26/2015 9:01:48 PM

I dunno, i'ts been fun watching their fans get their hopes up before we scored all these points. Worth it!

9/26/2015 9:02:00 PM

all 5 of them?

9/26/2015 9:03:03 PM

Their fans thought their team was hot shit after beating SDSU.

"Gottfried, who was the Jaguars’ athletic director for 26 years until he retired in 2009, is one of the main reasons N.C. State will play a second straight nonconference road game. Gottfried negotiated a “two-for-one” deal — two road games, one home game — with former N.C. State AD Lee Fowler in March 2009. N.C. State paid South Alabama $300,000 for the first leg of the three-game series, a 35-13 Wolfpack win in 2011. The schools traded off $200,000 travel tabs for the second two games in the series. N.C. State beat South Alabama 31-7 in Raleigh in 2012. Read more here: http://www.newsobserver.com/sports/college/acc/nc-state/state-now/article36524286.html#storylink=cpy"

I was at one of those games, the first one I think. we were not good that year

really? "destroy"???? this is a good team, what have you seen in the first four games that leads you to believe that? Sure we have a weakness in the secondary but our offense and run defense are pretty top notch. No ACC team will beat us by more than 20

9/26/2015 9:10:11 PM

yeah I think the first game was close for about a half

[Edited on September 26, 2015 at 9:10 PM. Reason : was that the pete thomas year?]

9/26/2015 9:10:26 PM

In 2011 we went 8-5 with a shut out over UNC, a win over a top 10 Clemson team, and we beat Louisville in the Belk Bowl. 2012 was the really disappointing year.

Then came 2013 with Pete Thomas.

[Edited on September 26, 2015 at 9:12 PM. Reason : tbdv]

9/26/2015 9:11:56 PM

Why are these guys arguing about a holding call on an incompletion on 3rd and 10.

9/26/2015 9:12:33 PM

I thought Pete Thomas was the 3-9, almost lost to a FCS school year

9/26/2015 9:13:08 PM

Pete Thomas was the first Doeren year.

9/26/2015 9:14:29 PM

THIS IS OUR BALL

9/26/2015 9:15:47 PM

I'm not sure if our receivers are having trouble getting open or if jacoby has trouble going through progressions. Prolly a good bit of both

9/26/2015 9:15:49 PM

i about lost faith in the program during that 3-9 year but jacoby really brought us outta a shithole. i'll be sad to see him go next year.

9/26/2015 9:17:59 PM

SAMUELS WAS IN

[Edited on September 26, 2015 at 9:18 PM. Reason : at least he got to pad Jacobys stats]

9/26/2015 9:18:20 PM

i got samuels on my fantasy team

9/26/2015 9:18:42 PM

That works.


We've still had like 3-4 plays where Brissett fakes a handoff when absolutely no one is in the backfield, you'd think we'd have some of that figured out.

9/26/2015 9:20:40 PM

we should do this type of schedule every year so then we can use the full season's stats as a recruiting tool. Although most people weigh team records against strength of schedule, most people forget to do the same for individual player statistics.

9/26/2015 9:21:13 PM

almost had another one

9/26/2015 9:31:54 PM

targeting? thats some bullshit

9/26/2015 9:35:35 PM

these refs man

9/26/2015 9:35:51 PM

good overturn

9/26/2015 9:36:55 PM

since when is it against the rules to knock the shit out of the opponent?

[Edited on September 26, 2015 at 9:37 PM. Reason : there you go]

9/26/2015 9:37:00 PM

at least the ncaa fixed the bullshit rule where you couldnt overturn the penalty this offseason

9/26/2015 9:37:12 PM

it was mean and thats why they threw the flag

9/26/2015 9:37:15 PM

That wasn't even a damn penalty.

9/26/2015 9:37:35 PM

time to miss another fg

9/26/2015 9:37:46 PM

im glad we know our kicker sucks before the acc starts

time to dig those fakes out of the playbook

9/26/2015 9:38:43 PM

alright now we know we go for it on 4th and short the rest of the year

9/26/2015 9:38:45 PM

yeah, this not having a kicker shit is gonna cost us in ACC play

9/26/2015 9:39:02 PM

Nah our kicker is a stud, we're just faking everyone out before conference play starts.

9/26/2015 9:39:59 PM

oh shit I thought our game just got switched for being a blowout

9/26/2015 9:42:02 PM

Can we steal their kicker?

9/26/2015 10:24:36 PM

Let's take the USA kicker with us and leave Bambard in Mobile.

9/26/2015 10:27:11 PM

I'd like to see Jalan air one out

9/26/2015 10:46:01 PM

whats the most points we've scored in the last 5 10 20 years?

9/26/2015 10:57:29 PM

65 points vs murray state in 09 and 65 vs navy in 02

[Edited on September 26, 2015 at 11:01 PM. Reason : kiker was prolly the difference]

9/26/2015 11:01:04 PM

Defense has looked better in the 2nd half, that's good, but you still can't pull much from this game on either side of the ball- atleast they took care of business.

9/26/2015 11:01:39 PM

We opened up the play book a bit and finished off our awful non-conference schedule 4-0. The next 3 look a lot more manageable with how Louisville & VT have looked this season, hope we can end our streak in Winston-Salem too.
