I only saw the first half but we are much further compared to last year's spring game. I liked what i saw from Brisset in the game other than that one pick he threw into double coverage. He has good leadership, a good arm, is quick, and plays with swagger. The o-line was getting hammered which forced him out of the pocket a lot but he's quick enough to create a play of his own... i just hope he stays healthy the entire season. Bo Hines is a freshman receiver to pay attention to this season. Last, it was nice to see Russel Wilson jersey get retired at NC State. Wolfpack nation was gravitating towards him and i never seen anything like it, but that what happens when you win the Superbowl. 4/12/2014 5:05:39 PM |

So, when we play real defenses, do you think the O-line will be able to protect Brissett long enough for him to make plays? He looks good out there, but our O-line could barley take the white team so... 4/13/2014 6:30:01 PM |

usually the red team is 1st string O and 2nd string D, white team is 2nd string O and 1st string D.
That makes way more sense to me than having 1st vs 2nd on the field. anyone know why they did that? 4/14/2014 11:48:41 AM |

IMO, that takes all the fun out of the game. If I want to see the starters play a team which is worse at literally every single position, I'll go to the Ga. Southern game. I want to see 1st team vs. equivalent competition on both sides of the ball. Would have gone to the R&W if I were in town anyway, but still disappointing. 4/14/2014 1:53:42 PM |

From what I'm understanding about the game, here are things we, as fans, learned about the team:
Our D-Line is similar to the past several years: not studded with superstars, but strong and very deep. Our O-line is deserving of a Charles Barkley impression. We will see the impact of Doeren's recruiting starting now. 4/14/2014 2:16:29 PM |

Holy shit dude...get over your self. You're inflated ego on a nc state student message board is both sad and hilarious.
And 1s go versus 2s in lots of Spring games. It creates a competitive environment. You want 2nd teamers to go out there and try and prove they should be on the first team...and first teamers don't want to be shown up.
And from a fan's standpoint...you don't want to watch two shitty 2nd teams going against each other. This isn't Alabama...where their 2nd team would probably play in the Peach Bowl.4/14/2014 2:37:50 PM |

True...I was going to say "wolfpack message board"...but that didn't really seem accurate either.
"Message board full of socially deprived 30 somethings" is probably better.

I think he has a point...the TOB last group of recruits lacked talent...our team last year was full of average players. Nothing ACC caliber on the offensive side.
He already has a true freshmen at center, WRs that are fresh/soph stealing the spotlight and Matt Dayes playing/running well.
His recruiting def is already shining through compared to the talentless group we were stuck with.
Glennon made his senior year team look a LOT better than they were.4/14/2014 3:18:49 PM |

When I looked over the recruits that DD got us, they didn't look too impressive. Yeah, they were better than what we have had, but they are still no where near the level that we need to get to a 5-6 win season.
I'll give DD this season to prove that he isn't a bad coach, but if he can't get us to at least 5 wins then I think Yow needs to start shopping again. 4/14/2014 3:56:17 PM |

I think its too early to draw conclusions from the new recruits. The only conclusion im confident in making is that our quarterback play will be much improved this year. Some guy in TWW said that Brisset sucked and some folks claimed he was garbage b/c he couldn't start over Driskel but i liked what i saw even if it was against the 2nd team. It seems like our o-line had been a lingering problem. I remember Russel Wilson scrambling more than any other ACC QB because our o-line was so porous. I saw a lot of short passes during the scrimmage which seems like a good way to neutralize this issue. Thornton was on the 2nd team offense but he couldn't get much going so that means our d line is pretty tough or he needs to get in better shape. Doeren has the tools to run his system so this is his year to prove his worth.

No idea as I wasn't there, but from everything I've read (including what yrey said), it sounds like offensive line is still a weakness. Kinda hard to say Doeren has all the tools if the offensive line is not very strong. 4/14/2014 7:53:38 PM |

It may not of been the best choice of words but he has the most important element to run his system which is a dual threat quarterback. Last year he had several zero threat QBs. I just hope Brisset is resilient b/c I imagine him taking some hits this year. 4/14/2014 11:47:17 PM |

no, obviously I was using it to show that I cant just post on here about the topics at hand without someone saying something unrelated or trolling. So it's not me that needs to "stop" or "get over it" or whatever catch phrases you always spout out, it's they that need to stop but I never see you getting on to them (not a peep about "how tower, this thread is about the NC State Spring Game, why did you bring up Tennessee??"). I realize its the "oh we can be anonymous assholes online" thing that you and your little cronies are doing, but you arent 12, and its not like the internet is some brand new thing, its been a pretty standard form of communication for almost 20 years now and people should be able to handle using it in a mature manner by now.
Quote : | "You brought yourself up in a non-Jaybee related topic" |
so I can only bring myself up in threads with my name in it? Because my post in here was about this thread and was a response to something said in this thread, so it wasnt some random post like you are trying to somehow make it out to be. So say I go to the UNC/State game, I cant post "I was at the game and saw.." or whatever since it isnt a "Jaybee related topic". Makes perfect sense.

Because he wouldn't have said anything if you hadn't started your tired "woe is me" schtick. You know that, right???
You use to be just annoying because of your Tennessee/Atlanta/whatever bias and decent troll attempts. But nobody really cared because you made up for it with your pretty good sports knowledge and debates. Then the NC State/Tennessee game happened a couple years ago and you've been absolutely insufferable ever since. I mean...you just played the victim card in this thread when neither Tennessee or your fat ass had been brought up.
Sure, dumbasses like tower might try and troll you every now and then...but they sure as fuck are going to do it if you bring it up in every fucking thread.

na bro, some of us are mature enough to be able to talk sports like an adult and not hide behind an "internet persona". I dont give a shit about what you people think about me so that's not the angle, there is no "woe is me" or whatever you call it because I really dont care. The angle is I dont want every single thing I post turn into a "let us post something about Tennessee or him being fat" and throw off EVERY topic I post in. Anyone else posts a negative (or hell, even neutral) about State its fine, I do it, and the thread instantly dissolves into "you are fat" or "fuck Tennessee". Just like this thread. Someone said:
Quote : | ""Let's wait and see what he does against quality competition."" |
Meaning the 1st team offense vs. the 2nd team defense. I knew that, everyone knew that. But if I had posted that same exact thing everyone would jump all over it claiming that I mean the offense was good because State's defense is so bad. Then it would devolve into "you sure do know a quality buffet I bet" etc.
I simply posted that if I had said the same thing that someone else in here had said it would have devolved into that and you know it is true... About the only thread that this doesnt happen in is the Braves thread and I guess that is due to team solidarity, I dont know.
