chick fil a bowl of course would be awesome.

but i would almost feel guilty going. not really. but we definitely don't deserve it.

12/1/2010 6:55:14 PM

Oh no optimism for something good happening to NC State. We'll probably end up in DC now with a rematch against the butt pirates.

Honestly Chic-Fli-A bowl would be tits.

NC State vs Florida would be absolutely one of the most fun New Years Eve's ever.

they sell beer in the game.

12/2/2010 8:51:48 AM

This is NC State. Pack your bags for Charlotte! Make sure you can crash at your parent's place!

12/2/2010 9:18:01 AM

We have a fan base that travels well and Maryland doesn't therefore they would rather have us than maryland and FSU isn't an attractive option. I am liking it. Basically our Maryland loss may end up putting us in the same place we would have been if we had lost to VT in the championship game. How un-ncstateshit can you get! GO VT!

12/2/2010 9:33:40 AM

taylor is going to break his foot or some shit and FSU will win in a blow out. That'd be some nc state shit.

"a bigger slap in the face than clemson playing in the acc championship game last year and then going to the music city bowl?"

damn, I didn't realize that happened last year. I got curious about last season and looked up what happened.

2009 ACC Final Standings (prior to postseason)
Atlantic
1. Clemson* (6-2) 8-5--------> Music City Bowl vs. UK (TN) #5 pick
2. Boston College (5-3) 8-4---> Emerald Bowl vs. USC (CA) #7 pick
3. Florida State (4-4) 6-6-----> Gator Bowl vs WVU (FL) #3 pick
4. Wake Forest (3-5) 5-7
5. NC State (2-6) 5-7
6. Maryland (1-7) 2-10

Coastal
1. Georgia Tech* (7-1) 11-2---> Orange Bowl vs. IA (FL) #1 pick
2. Virginia Tech (6-2) 9-3------> Peach Bowl vs. UT (GA) #2 pick
3. Miami (5-3) 9-3-------------> Champs Sports Bowl vs. WIS (FL) #4 pick
4. UNC (4-4) 8-4--------------> Meineke Bowl vs. PITT (NC) #6 pick
5. Duke (3-5) 5-7
6. Virginia (2-6) 3-9

Order of picks:
1. Orange
2. Peach
3. Gator
4. Champs Sports
5. Music City
6. Meineke
7. Emerald
8. EagleBank

Wow, based on that, it looks like anything could happen. I feel really bad for Clemson. Why did they get shafted so bad?

12/2/2010 10:10:51 AM

probably because the peach naturally would want VT because they travel well and draw nationally and the florida bowls wanted florida teams. Not that big of a deal.

Quote :

"The Chick-fil-A Bowl picked No. 12 Virginia Tech, while both the Gator and Champs Sports Bowls passed on Saturday’s loser out of fear its fan base would not travel back to Florida for the second time in a month. “There’s politics in everything,” Swinney said. “We had our opportunity to do something about it last night and we didn’t take care of business. So we don’t have anybody to blame but ourselves. “I know there’s a structure in place and all that kind of stuff. We had a good season and were a couple plays away from an even better season. But politics get involved when decisions are being made for the bowls.” Per an interpretation of the ACC’s contracts with its bowls, the Gator Bowl was allowed to eschew a league rule requiring it to take Florida State (6-6, 4-4 ACC) instead of a team within one win of the best available option, Clemson (6-2 ACC). The top three tie-ins were bound to take the ACC championship loser once in a four-year period, and the Gator did so in 2006. Thus, the league’s interpretation permitted the Tigers to be removed from consideration as well as taken out as the standard — meaning Miami and Boston College (5-3) were deemed the bar for the one-win rule, ACC spokesperson Amy Yakola said."

it sounds like the peach bowl is hoping for a fla st loss as well? seems like they want to take florida and va tech just played there last year. i don't think a miss st/fla st game would be any bigger of a draw than ncsu/florida.

According to a writer at the Virginia Pilot, the Chic-Fil-A Bowl has announced it will take the loser of the ACC title game.

12/2/2010 3:56:07 PM

Damn that sucks huge balls about the Chick-Fil-A bowl. I assume that means the Chick-Fil-A bowl expects to get someone like Miss St. I cannot imagine them wanting to risk a rematch of UF-FSU especially considering the pounding FSU put on the Gators.

Hopefully we'll get the Champs invite in the next day or two.

12/2/2010 4:00:30 PM

Rumor is we could find out today where State is headed.

12/2/2010 4:20:38 PM

^if true, pretty much guarantees champs bowl

hopefully it ends up being against either WVA or ND. Would be interesting at least

12/2/2010 4:26:43 PM

I don't think it guarantees the Champs Sports Bowl. Champs could very well choose Maryland. Same record, better comeback story, head-to-head win.

I still think we're likely going to go to Champs, but I don't feel confident enough to guarantee it. I'm still very much hoping.

12/2/2010 4:33:28 PM

nah, i agree..


but if they are announcing soon, champs is next bowl, they are def interested, and i would think that would be us

12/2/2010 4:35:12 PM

i don't think the bowls give a shit about head to head wins and the like. they care about how many people are going to buy tickets and watch their game on television.

12/2/2010 4:37:35 PM

Oh you're definitely right. But, c'mon, if you had to bet money on it right now, would you REALLY have enough confidence in an N.C. State-related thing to do it?

What you just mentioned is why I still think it's likely we get Champs. But you know how it goes with us. Nothing easy...

12/2/2010 4:40:57 PM

Nothing says BIG TIME like a Tuesday night in Orlando

12/2/2010 4:45:10 PM

^ Nothing says BIG TIME like sitting at home following another 5-7 season. I'll take Orlando.

12/2/2010 5:13:14 PM

it's been a great week for ncsu sports

now this is the feeling i'm used to

12/2/2010 5:14:06 PM

Champs or bust. If we get in to the car care bowl we could have lost 2 more and we would be in the same place. Why the fuck didnt we beat Clemson. TA was in.

12/2/2010 5:22:01 PM

I was at the Clemson game and http://dweedle farted when we punted and the wind made it only go three yards

12/2/2010 5:24:40 PM

it went four yards

12/2/2010 5:43:16 PM

^ thanks. i was hoping i could read that news 5 times in the same thread

12/2/2010 6:42:00 PM

Rumor has it that Chick-Fil-a thinks its VT-NCSU in the ACC Championship game so we should still be in good shape

12/2/2010 9:41:50 PM

Rumor has it we're gonna go to Orlando over Maryland cause they can't schedule a cargo plane for Friedgen in time.

12/2/2010 9:53:23 PM

West Virginia wins today. Do we see them in the Orange Bowl vs. the ACC Champ?

I just remembered that they played FSU in the Gator Bowl last season. Surely the Orange Bowl wants to avoid that matchup again if FSU wins tonight.

12/4/2010 3:43:03 PM
