6 wins and a trip to the tire bowl

2/27/2012 2:26:25 PM

we'll still have 6 LBs that have seen the field (including the juco transfer Caldwell), but yeah, that sucks.

2/27/2012 2:28:41 PM

Oh awesome, absolutely no lb depth or experience next year.

At least we aren't playing at home during the state fair.

2/27/2012 2:32:44 PM

Sterling Lucas?

2/27/2012 2:34:06 PM

I don't see where you get 6 LBs that have seen playing time? Ricky Dowdy is all I see and i don't remember him ever getting on the field...


[Edited on February 27, 2012 at 2:38 PM. Reason : oh wow. I have over 1000 posts. Good for me....]]

2/27/2012 2:37:03 PM

DJ Green was injured just under half the season last year

It could have been worse... could have been Amerson ruled ineligible...



Woot! 1000 posts!

2/27/2012 2:43:08 PM

technically, they've probably seen the field on special teams.

Lucas
Caldwell
Dowdy
Cheek
Peek
Pittman

2/27/2012 2:43:22 PM

^yeah, that's what i meant.

2/27/2012 2:46:09 PM

is Tennessee supposed to be any good?

annoyed that game was scheduled on a FRIDAY. not sure I have enough vacation days to go...

2/27/2012 2:51:58 PM

thats probably one of the toughest ACC schedules we have had in a longgggg time. If Vtech would have been on there it would have been ridiculous.

luckily wake is at home.

thank God for Tenuta staying.

2/27/2012 2:52:39 PM

Yeah, gotta beat the new rivals.

2/27/2012 2:54:13 PM

I see 7-5 with our losses being Tenn, FSU, UNC CH, UVA, and Clemson. Probably another Champs bowl, or whatever takes its place.

2/27/2012 3:31:34 PM

Aug. 31 (Fri.) vs. Tennessee Atlanta, Ga. -- W
Sept. 8 @ Connecticut Storrs, Conn. -- W
Sept. 15 SOUTH ALABAMA Raleigh, N.C. -- W
Sept. 22 THE CITADEL Raleigh, N.C. -- W
Sept. 29 @ Miami Miami, Fla. -- L
Oct. 6 FLORIDA STATE Raleigh, N.C. -- L
Oct. 20 @ Maryland College Park, Md. -- W
Oct. 27 @ North Carolina Chapel Hill, N.C. -- W
Nov. 3 VIRGINIA Raleigh, N.C. -- L
Nov. 10 WAKE FOREST Raleigh, N.C. -- W
Nov. 17 @ Clemson Clemson, S.C. -- W (will be looking head to Carolina Cocks)
Nov. 24 BOSTON COLLEGE Raleigh, N.C -- W



9-3

Tenn has been on the slide, Clempson losses a ton of Lineman and will be looking ahead to USC, I think UVA will be a Toss up.

Possible WTF Wins (Miami will be closer than the experts think)
Possible WTF loses (BC & Wake, we always play tight games)

FSU will be ranked high to start the season, will they maintain or fall apart?

Yuck, most of our home games are later in the season. Good for our team. Bad for tailgating. Hopefully it will be a warm fall.

[Edited on February 27, 2012 at 3:57 PM. Reason : WTF only 6 home games? I guess season tickets will be cheap this year.]

2/27/2012 3:55:42 PM

Clemson will be looking to avenge last year's blowout loss to us. They return Tajh Boyd + Watkins + Ellington. And it's AT Clemson.

LOSS

I would put an L against Tennessee too, 8-4 would still be a great season...

2/27/2012 4:07:47 PM

i want a > .500 conference record

2/27/2012 4:14:41 PM

Why does everyone say miami is a loss? They were not good last year and lost most of their best players to the draft.

without double-checking calendars, we have had a home game on thanksgiving weekend 9 seasons out of the last 10.

what the fuck?

2/27/2012 4:29:19 PM

^Has everything to do with the ACC knowing we will fill up the stadium on a holiday weekend. Some schools won't.

Statement from DJ Green:

Quote :

"“During the offseason, I wanted to gain weight so I took a supplement that someone from home gave to me. I wasn’t responsible enough to check with our coaches to make sure that it was something legal and now I’m paying the consequences. I apologize to my teammates, my coaches and to all the Wolfpack fans and hope that other players out there learn from my mistake. Even though it breaks my heart that I won’t be able to play next year, I will work hard every day in practice to help try to make my teammates better.”"

2/27/2012 4:52:04 PM

I'm ready for the Tennessee tickets to go on sale. I was hoping it would be that Saturday, but I guess I can get a day off of work for the game!

2/27/2012 4:52:28 PM

How is an illegal supplement going to cost him the entire season?

2/27/2012 5:01:45 PM

is it a coach's decision, or ncaa decision?

The same way illegal benefits can cost you your entire eligibility

2/27/2012 5:13:41 PM

Do the UNCheat thing. Appeal and get it down to one or two games.

2/27/2012 5:14:34 PM

An entire season seems a bit much to me.

i don't buy this at all. the acc doesn't get ticket revenue (as far as i know).

2/27/2012 5:21:24 PM

Do we know what the supplement was?

2/27/2012 5:24:01 PM

According to UNC fans it was the same "PED's" we got caught with last year

2/27/2012 6:13:27 PM

anyone hear Ovies talking about Fedora's tweet? Something about Fedora tweeting yesterday the number '244' and no one knew what it was about, then the schedule comes out today and it turns out the NC State vs UNC football game was/is 244 days from yesterday...

2/27/2012 6:44:46 PM

fedora is such an ass clown

2/27/2012 6:47:39 PM

But we're not their rival. I don't get it.

2/27/2012 6:50:23 PM

hmmm... i didn't think we were their rivals... interesting.

does this DJ Green thing count as a year of his eligibility?

2/28/2012 7:35:43 AM

He will have one year left after next year.

2/28/2012 8:04:36 AM

^^ yes
