Easily 3 ACC wins this season.

12/3/2013 7:59:15 PM

The year WITH Jacoby?

12/3/2013 8:25:59 PM

Plz stay healthy Jacoby.

12/3/2013 8:29:35 PM

NC State fans. Our. Time. Is. Now!

12/3/2013 8:55:48 PM

easily the most deserving of the picard facepalms




though the state fan in me is optimistic still for some reason

At least Pete will be ready next year. This year he just needed to get used to playing again

12/3/2013 9:04:30 PM

Unless something happens to Jacoby I doubt he'll be playing at all.

12/3/2013 9:09:27 PM

This is supposedly Rob Crisp. I assume he's talking about football?

Certain losses: vs. FSU, UofL, @Clemson
Lean toward loss: vs. GT, @ Syracuse
Toss-Up: vs. UNC, BC
Lean toward win: vs. WF, GSU, @ USF
Certain win: vs. Presbyterian, ODU

so, 7-5 or 5-7

12/4/2013 10:30:41 AM

What about Georgia Southern who we open with? Toss-up? We will have all summer to prepare for the option.

12/4/2013 10:40:34 AM

^, ^^better add Georgia Southern to the L pile

[Edited on December 4, 2013 at 10:44 AM. Reason : ALL OF THE GAMES]

12/4/2013 10:43:42 AM

Nowhere to go but up...right?

12/4/2013 10:44:47 AM

That tweet sounds amazingly gay. Like Ace and Gary gay.

Do we even know who's on our ACC schedule next year from the Coastal other than the obvious UNC game? Are we really playing Louis Ville?

Also that game @USF is not a sure victory. Yeah they suck, but they'll have as much talent as we have and State is pitiful on the road.

[Edited on December 4, 2013 at 10:51 AM. Reason : V thank you]

12/4/2013 10:45:34 AM

Home: FSU, BC, Wake, GT
Away: UNC, Louisville, Cuse, Clemson

12/4/2013 10:46:52 AM

I can't see more than 2 ACC wins there

you forgot Wil Baumann and Scott Thompson on offense.

12/4/2013 11:29:34 AM

i'm not that excited about hardly any of those guys returning

12/4/2013 11:52:35 AM

i think we'll have a solid defensive line if the offense can stay on the field long enough to let them rest.

12/4/2013 12:14:46 PM

The good news is that Wake has had as much trouble beating us at our home as we have beating them in theirs, so hopefully that means we'll stumble into one conference win.

12/4/2013 12:48:25 PM

and they lost their coach

At least we return a lot of guys that got plenty of PT last year. Good Lord though that OL is beyond awful. Not sure if I remember a group that bad in my years as a State fan.

It seems like its been sucking for years. I remember Russel Wilson having to scramble nearly every passing play b/c they could never pass protect. I remembered Glennon taking some unnecessary shard shots b/c they sucked. This year it really showed b/c our quarterbacks were well... you know.

12/4/2013 2:59:24 PM

The O-line issues are probably the one thing that disappointed me the most about the TOB era. When we got him, I truly believed we would be able to field an outstanding O-line once he got his recruits. For some reason it never panned out, even Crisp, his big time O-line recruit was a bust.

Joe Giglio ?@jwgiglio 8m
Four N.C. State football players were charged with simple marijuana possession on Wednesday, according to N.C. State University Police

The four players: RB Shadrach Thornton, CB Juston Burris, CB Marchez Coates, S J.J. Jones

University spokesman just called and clarified charges: Four players were at the apartment but only Thornton and Jones were charged

dammit thornton. (following in the footsteps of mustafa?)

12/5/2013 3:37:46 PM

Is this really an issue? If he is judged "not guilty", can he return to the team?

I'm half joking

guy on PP is saying this, don't know if it's true

Quote :

"The "old" girlfriend is retroactively trying to charge Shad with the initial offense after he broke up with her. 6 months after the fact. Let it play out."

so if that's the case, and they found weed on him when they entered his apartment, it shouldn't be a big deal

12/5/2013 3:42:04 PM

Shadrach if you're reading this, please no more fuck ups. We need all the decent players we can get next year, ok? Bye.

12/5/2013 3:43:38 PM

Oh the horror, a minor weed charge!

He's not going anywhere.

12/5/2013 4:02:35 PM

Shouldn't we wait till after the bowl game to start this bad boy up?

12/5/2013 4:02:41 PM

iop1

we'll get at least 1 conference win b/c we play Wake at home

12/5/2013 4:02:51 PM

I wonder how JesusHChrist feels about this. Afterall, Thorton didn't have any pot or sexual assault issues when TOB was here.


^^^They're investigating him for sexual assault.

^which we don't know if it's related to the earlier incident in the library

My news feed told me "simple marijuana possession".
