Went to the game yesterday. The offense looks really good, we definitely made some massive upgrades with McCall/Waters/Joly/Rogers/Grimes/etc. We will have an elite offense and even if Gibson somehow can’t put out another top-tier defense (if anyone can it’s him) we are still gonna beat nearly everyone we play just with those dudes putting up a ton of points. 4/7/2024 6:20:03 AM |

Other than the end of the half when they let one of the GiGi’s playhouse kids run it into the end zone (completely untouched!!1), they were going at it hard. The offense, thanks to the skill position guys, is most definitely miles ahead of what we’ve had in years past. 4/7/2024 8:51:45 PM |

It definitely seems like we upgraded the offensive skill positions. Wonder how the o-line will be, would help if we could run the ball at least a little. 4/8/2024 6:12:05 AM |

I realize this is the 2024 thread but we have OOC games schedule with uva for 2024 and 2025 lol 5/15/2024 10:25:57 AM |
rayef3rw All American 903 Posts user info edit post |
Well that's a new one... I guess they're one of our most historic opponents: 6th in all-time meetings, at 60, behind Wake Forest (117), North Carolina (113), Clemson (91), Duke (85), and Maryland (71). Which is a bit more impressive when you consider we only faced UVA 5 times before 1944, and 10x prior to 1958. After meeting nearly every year from 1958-2003, we've faced the Cavs only 7x since the creation of divisions.
I hope we make a similar arrangement with Wake Forest, despite their fuckery, just for the history of it.
Not sure where dmspack saw it, but I haven't seen confirmation of the OOC game on any NC State sources. I did find it from UVA: https://virginiasports.com/virginia-football-future-schedules/

I like that gopack refers to UVa as just “a power 5 opponent”
I don’t have strong feelings about uva. It’s more fun to me to play local/regional teams so in that sense I guess I’d rather play Uva OOC than Rutgers. But it doesn’t really move the needle for me at all. 5/15/2024 11:12:46 AM |

Weirdly this shows us with 5 OOC opponents after UVa. ECU, App, Campbell, Notre Dame…and now UVA. And in 2026 it’s Florida, Richmond, Vandy, App and now UVA.

We should just play 13 games and see if anybody notices.
I don’t mind playing ecu and app. Don’t love playing them on the road but I understand why app and ecu would want to get a home game out of the deal.

Ecu and App are clearly a level above Campbell. FBS vs FCS.
Campbell’s stadium holds 5500.
Ecu and Apps stadiums could at least accommodate a game vs State.
I get the downside to playing App or ECU, especially on the road. But playing at Campbell is clearly not the same thing. 5/15/2024 3:19:19 PM |

State ranked #13 in ESPN's post-spring Top 25. Carolina nowhere to be found, and I'm okay with that. The preseason hype usually goes to our heads.
Quote : | "13. NC State Wolfpack Spring update: Dave Doeren has quietly guided the Wolfpack to 34 wins the past four seasons, including a 9-4 mark last year, despite having a mess in the quarterback room. That position shouldn't be a problem with former Coastal Carolina star Grayson McCall taking over the offense. He threw for at least 2,400 yards with at least 24 touchdowns and fewer than three interceptions in each of three straight seasons from 2020 to 2022. McCall battled a head injury last season. He'll be surrounded by plenty of talent at NC State, including transfer receivers Noah Rogers (Ohio State) and Wesley Grimes (Wake Forest) and returning star KC Concepcion, the ACC Rookie of the Year in 2023. Tight end Justin Joly (UConn) and tailback Jordan Waters (Duke) were big additions as well. NC State faces September tests against Tennessee in Charlotte and Clemson on the road, but it doesn't play Florida State, Louisville, Virginia Tech or Miami -- four of the best teams in the ACC -- during the regular season." |

I saw a QB ranking that put Mccall as #2 in the conference which I, of course, think is perfectly justified, if one spot too low, and not at all wildly speculative/optimistic for a QB coming from outside P5 that had a rough year last year.
